Like many others, we decided to keep a few dairy goats as a source of milk for our family. Then we were bit with the show bug and now we have built a beautiful small herd of Purebred and American Alpines we exhibit annually. We will have select kids available each spring for purchase. Please check with us on availability. Will be willing to put you on a waiting list and call when we have what you are looking for. Our herd is tested for CAE, TB, & Brucella annually before milking. We vaccinate twice yearly for CD&T/ pneumonia. All kids are disbudded shortly after birth. All kids are raised on pasturized milk. We have had negative CAE test in the herd now for 6 years. We have had no CL in our dairy herd..

 
 

2016 was an "off" year for our family and the dairy herd.  With unexpected family emergencies and events out of our control, the goats didn't see the time needed to do well with their lactations. The entire herd was dried off after appraisal after being on once a day milking for a few months. Hopefully 2017 gets off to a smoother start and they can bounce back very well.  The 2016 milk test numbers are not relevant to normal management of the herd and should not be considered as true relevant to the does individual production.

Breeze was rather awkward as a young doe, being more to the extremes of elegance.  She has a real will to milk and in 2014 has began to mature into her body and fill in the willowy gaps.  She is strong on her feet and legs with adequate width between the front legs with brisket extention blending nicely into her front assembly. She has a tightly supported mammary system with a beautiful extension to her fore udder and an extremely high rear udder. Very open in her ribbing and exhuborates the qualities we look for in a true dairy goat. Our only daughter of the great GCH Willow Run WRAW Jasmine 4*M EX92. She is not much different in type to her maternal grandmother Josefina and we hope to see her appraise high and be appreciated for what she truely is. Breeze finally decided to cooperate with us in the show ring this year and easily finished her champion status in three shows. Once named BDIS and another ring BUIS! She is a doe that fought me tooth and nail inside the showring in her younger years. Really a frustrating relationship we had to work through.  We love the strong maternal attributes she brings to the table, as well as her productiveness.

Dream is a wonderful addtion to the herd.  She is a maternal sister to the matriarch Jasmine.  Long, willowy, correct, with a wonderful mammary system and very milky is a good description.  Looking forward to to the addition of extra milk.  She is typical of her breeding and milks off her flesh every spring. She has a very high rear udder with good support and perfect teat placement and an overall capacious mammary. She is very correct on her feet and legs and carries a very strong front end. Though she is coded for turned out front feet on her first freshening appraisal, she has board straight front limbs! Need milk? This line will put it in the pail! So pleased to have her fresh in 2015.

Fragrance is another beautiful doe added from Hull's Alpines.  She is long with good depth of barrel and power.  Her mammary system is carried extremely high and is tightly attached to her body wall. Missed a star by a tiny amount, but had to cut lactation short for early freshening in 2014. She easily made her milk star in 2015 lactation, but was dried off early due to an injury. Looking forward to getting her going in 2016.  Her kids should be power houses by Kinfolk with strong type and functional sound milkers as they mature!

Expecting a great doe to mature out of this female.  We love her genetics and hope to improve on the foundation of excellence that has been laid. Beam is a very growthy yearling showing us a very long flat bone pattern and is very dairy and uphill.  Her mammary is developing into a very capacious milking unit.  She has small well placed teats, a wide and high rear arch and a good fore udder.  Beam was alway's a bit gawky as a youngster, but is maturing nicely and we look forward to her future.

Long, tall, and willowy. Justyne freshened 2015 with a socked on mammary that is extremely high with a wide rear udder arch.  Small teats that are near perfectly set under the mammary system. As she matures into her lactation, she pleases us! She is a doe that will mature like fine wine and get better with age.  The winter of 2016 into spring 2017 finds this doe deepening in her rear barrel as she moves into her third lactaion.  We expect quite a bit more milk this year and hopefully nothing in life shakes up the foundation of this lactation like we endured last spring.

Jewel freshend summer of 2014 with a socked on udder.  She has a beautiful extension to the fore udder attachment and is high in the rear udder. Really excited to see this doe mature.  I feel the maternal lines in this female make her worth waiting for.  She had a rough delivery of a very large buck kid that contributed to lessen her production and start of lactation.  Dry in 2015 and will be bred to Kinfolk. This is a powerhouse of a doe, glad we decided to hang on to her and wait. She really matured through her dry down time and grew really well.  Pictures to come this spring when she is fresh again.  This is a doe that truely excites me and causes me to be a bit impatient.

We were so excited to add Phillipian and keep the purebred "J" line of Willow Run alive.  This doeling is linebred on Jasper, littermate to our Jasmine EX92, Josefina, Rico Suave, Abraham Wonder, and Maple-glen Classics Angela just to name a few.  The feet and legs and dairy strength are there. They are a bit different in type than our Kinfolk and American babies, but are streatching out and growing well.

Joyful is the epitomy of a dairy goat.  She is long, tall, and very correct on her feet and legs. Joyful is a doe that shows great dairy strength without frailness. Open and flat ribbed with pliable skin that we appreciate in our dairy animals.  She appraised as a first freshener at 89 VVVE and went 90 VEVE in 2014.  She is a doe that is an eye catcher!  We love her correct and very productive mammary.  Joyful was 9th place 5-6 year old at 2014 ADGA National show. We lost Joyful in December 2015 and were devastated to say the least.  Glad to have her daughters continuing to mature in the herd.

We are so excited to add this great addition to the herd. Great thanks given to Kim Hull for the extraordinary opportunity to own such a magnificant herd of alpines.  This doe is special in many way's and admired by many in the dairy goat industry.  Jasmine was named 1st milking yearling and 1st udder at 2006 ADGA National Show.  She was last appraised 92EEEE!  You have to admire the beautiful mammary system this doe has, as well as her very attractive general apperance.  We lost Jasmine Dec. 2014.

Manda Lin started Alpine fever with us. She is the first registered doe we purchased. Appraised once as a 6 year old with a score of 90 VEVE. She is a tall, high withered, long & level doe. The rear udder in this doe has superior heightHer dam was the 1997 spotlight sale doe that tied for 9th place on top 10 list in 2001. We think Lin looks identical to her paternal Grand-dam Lyric. She is the favorite of the family. Even with her age, she still milks like a young doe.  We lost Manda Lin spring of 2014.  Gone but always will live on in our hearts.
