Saanens
We have been breeding saanens for over 25 years.  The emphasis has always been on milk production.  Any bucks introduced into the herd have always come from high milk producing bloodlines.  We have recently added Lee Avon Moxy to our sires.  His mother is an Australian Champion, and she is also a *Q* and RM188.  His first kids have arrived and we are very pleased with them.

Trigfry Shasta - purebred Saanen doe who produced over 5 litres a day on her first lactation

We have not shown dairy goats for many years, so some of our photos are now of the important working end of our saanens.  Below are some of the udders of does currently in our herd.  Most of these photos were taken when the does were 6 months, or more, into their lactations.

+Murrungowar Lincoln is one of the herd's current sires.  His dam is Australian Champion R189 Murrungowar Leilani *Q*5.  She was Victorian Doe of the Year in 2000 and has produced a 24hr milk production in excess of 8 kilos.
