Herd Moms of Rocky Hill Kikos
To raise high quality goats you have to gather high quality does as well as bucks. I narrowed in on some genetics I was interested in and traveled across many states to buy herd moms for the 2018 breeding season. In 2019 I purchased six Sundance Kid daughters and other performance proven does to add to my herd for 2019 breeding season.
I have around 40 herd moms who kid each year. I'll be featuring some of them here and update from time to time to add variety. Be sure to check back periodically for updates.

The sire of this doe, Sundance Kid, was the Grand Champion FEC (lowest fecal egg count) , third place in Average Daily Gain (ADG), and Reserve Champion Top Herdsman Award winner at the 2015 Oklahoma Forage-based Buck Performance Test.
