*B Lucky*Star's TD Kolossus (DNA typed & A/A casein) 85 +E+ - AI sire

     Kolossus is an exciting AI sire! He was a 2018 Spotlight Sales animal (selling for $5,000) and has a star studded pedigree! His 4 generation pedigree boasts 5 Top Ten milkers, an LA average of 91, 14 of the 15 does are GCH or SGCH, 9 of the 15 bucks are GCH, 2 National Champions, 2 Reserve National Champions, multiple National class winners, as well as 4 consecutive generations of BIS wins on his maternal side. His dam, Zaray, made Top Ten three times and LA'ed 92 three times! Two of his maternal sisters (Emmaray and Barani) also made Top Ten. His sire's family needs little introduction with Daniel's esteemed Tempo and Kastdemur genetics and his gorgeous progeny across the country, making their own legacy. We are incredibly excited about the potential of this cross with our girls! Sire of Sean.

*B (p) Rockin-CB AAM Nile -AI Sire

     We procured a few straws of Nile from our friends over at Sunset Dreams Dairy Goats a few years ago. The intention was to breed our lovely Fable to him and we were thrilled when she settled...and then heartbroken when she miscarried after our herd was hit with CVV. We used what we had remaining of him to settle Fable's daughter, Niamh, for 2024 and that breeding gave us our first AI doe! Nile is the littermate brother of 2021 Spotlight Sale doe, Rockin-CB AAM Nebo. Their other littermate sister, Natsu, was 5th Junior kid at the 2021 Nationals. That very same show, their dam knocked it out of the park by winning National Reserve Champion/Reserve Udder behind the now infamous Haiku. Jordan also has a lovely milk record for both production and high butterfat content. Nile is the sire of Somhairlin.

Lucky*Star's ME Hoopla 3-11-2016 A/B Casein & DNA typed (deceased)

     Hoopla's barn name was Ivy. She was a small doe with a big attitude and her larger, easy to milk teats made her the favorite to hand milk. Ivy had a strong medial suspensory ligament, which kept her udder well above the ground. She had a very long, wide rump and the nicest rear legs in our herd, both in angulation and in foot/pastern structure. We also appreciated her ability to milk through multi-year lactations with ease. Ivy was one of our foundation does and we are thankful for the time she was with us and we miss her.

*B Lucky*Star's RJ Linden 4-18-2019 A/A Casein & DNA typed ~Sold

     Linden had the honor of being our first herdsire. He is quite a handsome gentleman, with a fabulous head, sharp shoulders, extra wide rump, wide spacing of his ribs, and low maintenance feet. His dam was 3rd 2 yr old at the 2019 Nationals and has milked tested 5.2% and 4.6% butterfat perspectively. His paternal sisters are just lovely and many are earning their milking stars as yearlings. Linden's kids have shown general improvement over their dams in width/length of rump, shoulder assembly, and rear leg angulation, as well as the majority carrying on his lovely breed character. We have also noted an increase in butterfat with his milking daughters in our herd when compared to their dams. He does tend to shrink test size, which can be desirable or undesirable depending on the doe he is bred to. His daughters tend to have sharper rump slopes that typically become more level with age. These are slow maturing kids and patience is needed for them to show their true potential. Sire of Naoise, Niamh, Saoirse, and Sibin.

*B (pending) Rustic Wood's OK Keahilani 1-5-22 A/E Casein & DNA typed~Sold

     Keahilani was a surprise addition to our herd. We were in need of fresh genes for our tiny herd and an opportunity arose to purchase this young buckling unexpectedly. He is beautifully long and has an incredibly wide chest with wrinkly, dairy skin to spare. His bloodlines are well known and based on his first kids; he has blended beautifully with our girls. His dam had a total of 7 grand champion wins and 2 BJDIS awards as well as milking 3,380lbs as a first freshener, earning #5 for protein and #7 for butterfat in the 2021 Top Ten! His maternal granddam, Nevaeh, earned #1 for production and protein, #2 for butterfat in the 2021 Top Ten after her 5,100lb lactation! Some serious milk behind this guy! His sire is a son of the lovely SGCH 3*M Olentangy LSX Emerald 92 EEEE, who won her class at Nationals 2 years in a row, including a 1st place udder win. Keahilani (kay-hee-law-nee) is Hawaiian for "heaven's fire", but our children have given him the barn name of Mack. We have seen an improvement in substance of bone, dairy/pliable skin, lateral attachments, and depth of heel. His offspring are very young so their strengths and weaknesses are still being uncovered. We have noted he tends to be inconsistent with teat size and placement. Sire of Rioghnach, Roisin Dubh, and Seadna.
