South Fork LaManchas
Thank you for your interest in our dairy goat herd. We have been raising dairy goats since 1980, our first goats being a 4-H project for our youngest son, Richie. Our herd consisted strictly of Nubians until 1988 when we added our first LaMancha doe. It didn't take long for them to steal our hearts and take over the entire barn! Our herd now consists totally of LaManchas. This is our 22nd year on DHIR test, and we have had the top milk and butterfat LaMancha in the state of Colorado for the past 18 years.
We have been on a strict CAE prevention program since 1988, and we will continue to do so because it works! Every kid is taken at birth - every birth is attended! All our kids are raised on heat treated colostrum and bottle fed pasteurized milk. In addition the entire herd is vaccinated for tetanus and entero and dewormed regularly. We feed the highest quality alfalfa available, a 16% protein grain mix, and free choice of salts and minerals.
2007 has quickly become the most incredible year!! Charity finished her championship....we had many All American wins including Supreme All American doe (tie) with SGCH South-Fork Toi Dancer...and then came the National Show. All we can say is WOW!! Cayenne was named National Grand Champion and Best Uddered doe and Cate was Reserve Grand Champion!! We also had the 1st place Dairy Herd and 1st place Best 3 Sr. Females. Cayenne won the milk production awards for both milk and butterfat for lifetime (she also won these awards last year!). Her granddaughter, GCH Shady Lawn Classy Belle (1st place 4 year old) won the milk production awards for both milk and butterfat for a single lactation; Belle's litter sister, GCH Shady Lawn Classy Beauty was 2nd place 4 year old and Reserve Best Udder, and their sire, *B South-Fork SK Class Act (who is Cayenne's first son) was named Premier Sire of the Show! At the end of the week at the awards ceremony we were awarded LaMancha Premier Breeder and Exhibitor. Richie and I were both just thrilled. We cannot say THANK YOU enough to everyone who helped us get there and helped the day of the show. You guys are the best!!
A $100.00 deposit is required on all orders, with the balance due upon notification of birth. If the balance is not received within 2 weeks the kid will be offered to someone else. We do reserve the right to our choices of replacement animals, so, if possible, please select a first and second choice kid. If both choices of kids are unavailable, your deposit is refunded. NO refunds of deposits on canceled orders. For animals ordered after birth we do not guarantee these prices. We will take deposits on bucks out of first fresheners, but must make our final decision on that sale after the doe has freshened. We will not sell any kid unless we feel it is of outstanding quality. This does not mean that all kids sold will be grand champions, but should compete well. If any animal is found to be genetically unsound or infertile it will be replaced, contingent upon receiving a vet’s signed statement that the problem was of genetic origin. All shipping costs and health certificates are the buyer’s responsibility.
The following sales list offers prices on kids available for the 2008 kidding season. In order to keep our herd size manageable, the majority of our kid crop will be offered for sale, as well as a few quality milkers. Extended milk records are available upon request. To show our appreciation to our repeat customers, we are again offering a 10% discount on any animal purchased in 2008.
