Opal is a light caramel.  I got her in the summer of 2006 as a 4 year old.  She has been an easy kidder and a great mom.  I am hoping to get some wonderful caramels out of her for the years to come.
 
On August 24, 2006 Opal took NPGA Senior Champion Doe and NPGA Grand Champion Doe. 
 
Opal took Grand Champion Sr Doe and Grand Champion Doe at our pygmy show August 23, 2007

This is Whisper a doe I will be buying from Wood Bridge Farm in Ohio.  She will be bred prior to shipping to Rosasharn UMT Pippin *S one of the last sons of ARMCH Rosasharn's Under My Thumb+*S.  I can't wait to meet this girl in person!
Looks like Whisper was bred and will be on her way to Alaska on November 6th. 
 
Finally Whisper is here and I love everything about this girl!  She cuddles on me by giving me kisses and loves to be scratched.  I can not wait for her to kid to get a great look at her udder, I'm sure it matches the rest of her, perfect!

Newsflash: Whisper Kidded with a single 4 1/2 pound buckling on March 18, 2008.  Whisper will start on milk test around May 3rd.  Her udder has nice attachments and it is has a soft texture but doesn't have the capasity that I was hoping for but maybe next year with a multiple birth it will be better.

Ellie came from my friend who owns Silveraurora Nigerian Dwarfs in Wasilla, AK. 
Ellie started out rough in life but you'd never know it looking at her now!
 
Newsflash:  Ellie is now a Sr doe since she kidded with twins, a 4 1/4 pound buckling and a 3 pound doeling on 7/6/08.  She had them with no problems, of course with the biggest first.  She is an excellent first freshening mom.  She will start on milk test 7/18/08.

Grand Champion Jr Doe

Wow what a day that was. Silveraurora CC Xcella won Grand Champion Jr Doe under judge Marie Layman.  This was our first ADGA show and we had a lot of fun and boy am I proud of this girl.  Not only is she wonderful to be around she is very well put together.  Her dam Gay-Mor Mick's Poision Locket 2*D AR 1*M was an excellent milker these are are results from her last milk test:
March, 2006 - 4.2 pounds! 4.11:134DIM - 402 - 27 - 17 6.7% BF average. 
Ellie has wonderful genetic potential and I look forward to her first freshening this coming spring.
 
Ellie took Reserve Jr Champion doe at both our ADGA and AGS show on August 24, 2007 under judge Lynn Fleming.

News Flash: Winnie kidded with a single caramel doeling on April 23, 2008.

Winnie is a black agouti.  She is Opal's daughter from 2004. She has a wonderful personality and great conformation. 
Aug 2007- This doe has turned out to be just as good as her mother and I couldn't ask for a better mom and milker!  Yes I said milker, wow what an udder on this girl, I am milking her once a day right now and get 1 quart.  I was getting more when milking twice a day but for times sake once a day worked better for my schedule.
 
Winnie took Reserve Sr Champion Doe at our pygmy show on August 23,2007.  Second only to her mom!!

Bad picture with my cell phone, sorry!

Truffle is a brown caramel who took my heart the first time I saw her picture. She flew all the way from New Mexico to be here with us.  Wild as wild can be. I have always loved caramels with brown being my favorite.  I can't wait until she has her first baby in 2 years!

Summer 2007-  Truffle has stayed small so I am hoping she has a growing spurt here soon so I can breed her in January to Mac.  If not I will just wait and have fall 2008 babies from her.  She has decided that I'm not all bad but still isn't the cuddle bugs some of my other goats are. 

Truffle took Reserve Jr Champion doe at our pygmy goat show 8/23/07.
