| In our breeding program, we place
an enormous amount of emphasis on the quality and strengths of the
buck. Consistency is paramount, and after years of breeding, we feel
we've achieved what we're looking for in our herdsires. Many of our
sires are getting older, and hopefully some of their offspring will
soon be filling their shoes! |

Gem was a very stylish, elegant buck, characteristics
he consistently passed on to his kids. He was long-bodied
and level, with a wide rear leg set and great angulation.
Gem was definitely a "doe-maker"! According to
our records to date he produced about 90% doe kids and almost
90% polled! He also improved the udder on nearly every doe
he wa bred to. His twin sister, MCH Flat Rocks Opal *D and
his daughters have done very well in the show ring. Gem
was by far the most consistent buck we've ever used and
we are very proud of him. He has left us in body, but his
legacy in our herd is everywhere we look.

Show easily finished his MCH title in 2003, taking grand champion
buck 4 times. This buck is standing on the best feet and legs
I've ever seen, they are dead on straight, and so far he has
passed them on to every kid he's thrown. Our Minstrel Show
daughters have freshened with beautiful udders, being very
well attached with excellent capacity. We are crossing Minstrel
Show to many of our polled Flat Rock Gem daughters this year.
Not only do we feel it will be an excellent cross, it is also
a line breeding on MCH FR Surprise through Minstrel Show's
granddam, Flat Rock's Sweet Reward. |

| This
young buck is very, very special to me. His dam, Lost Pines
Champagne, was one of my all time favorite does. She had it
all: structure, mammary system, color, and personality plus!
Unfortunately I lost her to a ruptured uterus several years
ago. Fox Fire is the only kid I had kept out of her, and I
am so happy that I did! He is everything I would expect from
his bloodlines, very correct feet and legs, long and very
level, wide and deep, with tons of dairy character and style.
Fox Fire finished his MCH in 2004, after a very short show
career. His kids have been exceptional all the way through.

| Maestro
is our up and coming Senior Herdsire. He combines the best
qualities of both his dam, MCH FR Surprise, and his sire,
MCH PE Minstrel Show. This buck is extremely correct all around.
He is standing on superior feet and legs, and showing excellent
width and depth of body. Based on structure and the superior
udder genetics behind him, this boy is the one to watch! He
is bred to several of our best does for Spring kids. |
(yes,
he's standing on a tortoise!) |

| This
buck is absolute dynamite! He is a beautiful deep chocolate
and white. He is very structurally correct being very
wide, especially through the hocks, very level, with correct
feet and legs, and a long neck. His dam, Treasure, was one
of our oldest does. She had a lovely well attached udder that
held up well into her old age. Treasure was a very wide and
powerful doe whose kids earned multiple Grands. Since Treasure
has passed on, Buried Treasure will be her final son. See
his daughter, ARMCH Flat Rocks Here For The Party *D E, on
the reference page. |

| This
little buck is line bred on some very old and very influential
bloodlines. His dam, Golden Gertie, is a full
sister of MCH Glady's Porter Zoo Ali's Tex, and her udder
is holding up even into her very old age. Leprechaun
was the sire of some of our best foundation does, including
Willows Mania. We think the combination of these two
animals will produce some very solid animals. |

thanks to Sue Brennan of Irish Whisper Farm for allowing us
to have this very special boy! Harry is just dynamite,
and a personality plus! Not only does he combine some
awesome udder genetics, but he's extremely correct, being
long and level, very deep, and wide throughout. He's
also standing on very straight feet and legs. |

| Jack
is a very powerful blue-eyed buck with a wide chest and straight
front legs that he consistently passes on to his kids. He
is quite small, measuring only 21". Jack has produced
daughters with exceptionally nice udders as well as overall
conformation. He's just one of those bucks that produces better
than himself. We're so excited to have Jack back home, although
it seems his days of siring kids are over. He will pass an
honored retirement here. |

| We
are very pleased to introduce Silver! He's a beautiful polled,
silver buck with a tremendous amount of potential. He's long
and very level, has great angulation to his rear legs, very
sharp and extremely dairy. He's standing on the strong, straight
legs we've come to expect from Leprechaun as well. To top
it off, his dam freshened with one of the best udders we feel
we've ever produced. Boo Boo is a dynamite doe, who excells
in dairy character and mammary system. We expected this combination
to produce exceptional kids, and we were not disappointed
with Silver. |
