Black white splash Doe kid. F2. Disbudded brown eyes. She also comes from a 6lb/day doe who is smaller in size. (Very heavy milker for her size). I love this girls structure and capasity. I am keeping her full sister this year and she is just slightly smaller in stature.

White splash elf eared doe kid. F2. This girl will be high production doe. Her dam produces 7lbs a day on 2X a day milking. I am keeping her half sister and hope she becomes a great producer for her next farm fam.

Polled chamoisee Doe Kid. Has a beautiful structure and capasity. I am keeping her full sister who is just as nice but b&t and slightly deeper in body. Sad to let this girl go. Would like to send to a performance home who milk tests. Just to see how this girl does.

Golden 8's Garden RANG Nova.
Black & Tan Jounior Doe.
Comes from great milk lines. Dam produces around 6lbs a day but is a very small doe. This girls is very wide and deep in body. Should have great capasity and udder confirmation. I am only letting her go because I have her full litter mate sister and she is slightly smaller in stature. Please pm for pedigree and additional photos.

💥Huge Herd Reduction💥
3 Doe Kids, 1 Junior Doe, 1 Doe In Milk, 2 Buck Kids, and 1 Yearling Junior Buck.
All of them have great confirmation and come from great milk lines. I have some combinations that can be paired together for a starter herd.
Please see photos below for listing and individual posts on our page for more details. For the Month of July I will take 💯 off anyone of these! And will also consider letting groups go for less. PM with inquiries as I don't get on here often.

💙 Sunsprings MUS Rumba💙 is in need of a new herd! He comes out of some SG lines. Sire is full lamancha dam is a high production mini. Granddam produced 12lbs on official milk test. He will definitely throw doe kids that will put the milk in the pail.
The kids he threw this year have steller conformation but I have yet to see an udder out of him. 50/50 boy to girl ratio this year.

My favorite things about Rumba is his length of body, wide and flat rump, width throughout, and smooth blending.
I feel he needs improvement in his feet and legs.

He is also pretty skittish (came to me that way) but he can be coaxed with sweet feed or grain. He has very large scurs that have never broken off and he is definitely in charge in our buck pin. Needs a firm hand but will contribute alot to a breeding program.

And finally a peak at some of the girls this year! 🥰

White and cream buck kid. Brown eyes and waddled. He is very deep bodied and wide in escoution. Sorry about the photos he kept wanting to squat.

Dam: Sunsprings KK Roxette (Aka Roxy, her 11 year old udder photos in comments).
Sire: Sunsprings MUS Rumba

My good ol' girl Roxy finally gave me a buck kid without ears 🤣. Nice boy I am almost tempted to keep too.

Photos from Golden 8's Garden's post 27/04/2024

This boy is long! Fawns second boy of triplets this year looks just like her too!

Will be registered experimental F2 with elf ears.

Tiny but strong. This boy comes out of my little dam Corgi who has the nicest udder in my herd. She has higher production that my big girls too!

Sire Sunsprings MUS Rumba
Nice solid kid with great width throughout.

I'll post the best brothers together. These kids are seriously so nice. Both up for discussion but I am also happy to keep them... 😅.

They will carry the depth and width I love along with some stellar toplines. 😍

Blue eyed and flashy buck kid. F2. Out of my Reserve Champ Golden 8's Garden LEO Winni. Sire Sunsprings MUS Rumba.

This boy is very nice, long, great length. He will likely through great teat length from winni and capasity from is paternal side.

He ended up with elf ears but could easily be used over some Gopher eared girls or standards depending on your program.

His bottle trained and good to go.

This flashy little mini lamancha F2 buckling is now trained on the bottle and ready for his new home.

Can be registered F2.
Sire: Sunsprings MUS Rumba
Dam: Golden 8's LEO Fawn (she is a FF and has a beautiful high production udder, pics in comments).

Coat color is actually red chamoisee with white overlay and roaning. Brown eyes. Gopher ears.

2024 kids all on the ground. Happy days. Wish I could keep them all.

The kids have started arriving this week. Bambi had the first set of Quads we have ever had and Roxy with her usual Buck, Doe twins.

This is Golden 8's LEO Winni. She is an amazing doe and I have favored her forever! I decided to keep her full sister due to Winni being smaller in stature and has slightly tighter udder texture and smaller teats. This is purely a cosmetic choice for which direction I want my program to go; which makes the decision to let her go very challenging for me! But, alas I have too many girls right now and I am keeping her daughter from this year. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Kazumi needs new pastures. He is a steller *B buck and improved my toplines, rump, and length of body. I really love this buck and his temperment, but I have too many bucks right now and am keeping his girls.

Photos from Golden 8's Garden's post 19/07/2023

This is Golden 8's LEO Corgi. She has such a beautiful udder! As a FF I couldnt be happier. 😍. I seriously love this doe and am having a hard time making cuts this year. But I also kept her and her three sisters and promised myself I'd pick one, once they all freshened. Corgi needs to be bred to a buck who can improve rump and topline. The girls she threw this year took on those features, so I am keeping one. Her full twin will also be up for consideration.

💥Hudge herd reduction!
This year we have brought in so many new genetics and are now overrun! So, we are even letting some of our favorites go!
Golden 8's LEO Winni, won Reserve Champ at last years V-Show. 1 year old FF doe. B&T blue eyes. (Udder pictured below where she is turning slightly).

Golden 8's LEO Corgi, full sister to above just freshened in July. B&T brown eyes. (Udder pictured below). I also am letting go one of her twin doe kids from this year as they are nearly identical & I don't want to keep both!

Buck Creek's GK Kazumi. I have too many nice bucks, and too many of his kids retained. He needs a new job.

Golden 8's KAZ Tiny Dancer, she is a 2023 doe kid.

Thomas Kids HB Lulu. She is a dry yearling that didn't settle last year. I am letting her go for the price of meat since I am unsure of her breed ability and I currently don't want to process her. I think she deserves another chance but she needs to be moved along to someone more patient.

Winni & Kazumi b&t blue eyed elf eared buckling (can go in tact or withered, can also accompany the other buckling)
Bambi & Kazumi brown chamois elf eared buckling (can go in tact or withered as companion to other buckling).
*I'd like these two to stay together.

Finally but not the least desirable

Cori & Ranger baby. Born July and can go as a bottle baby.
*(you must have other kids her age or she will go later this year).

Check out photos below and let me know if you are ready to add! I will be doing seperate post for each adult animal featured and add more details there.
