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.

LFK H886 SDK Flower Child

Flower Child was in the breeding pen with RDH Strike Gold.  Flower Child kidded triplet boys on November 29, 2019.  That cross went so well look for a repeat in 2020.

I had the opportunity to purchase this amazing doe at the 2019 Cookville NKR Sale.  High selling doe at $5300, and in my opinion, she's worth it!  I'll be retaining several of her offspring in my doe herd.

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. Sundance Kid sired the Grand Champion Top Herdsman Award winner and the Reserve Champion Top Herdsman Award winner at the 2018 Oklahoma Forage-based Buck Performance Test out of Outlaw daughters.  E35 &E36 were also Grand Champion and Reserve Champion ADG at the 2015 Oklahoma Forage-based Buck Performance Test. So, this outstanding doe has the highest ADG and Highest Parasite Resistance wrapped up in one package. 

AFS Roho's Big Doll

I have a lot of buyers who want “big goats”.  Now this is a big goat!  But not a surprise when you cross Roho Grande over an Ironhore Doe!

Roho’s Big Doll is the full (littermate) sister to Roho’s Big Darlin at Dean Hill Kikos.  Big Darlin is a legend, well known, and her kids are highly sought after.  Big Doll is just as big as her twin sister but she’s pretty wild and not near as photogenic. 

I knew she was big and had to get a weight on her before putting her in the breeding pen with CGI Spitfire. She’s open and weighed in at 214 pounds!


​Sire:  ECR Roho Grande (Rusty)
Dam: GHK Z58 (Ironhorse)
Genetics Include:  ECR Roho Grande’, ECR Rusty, Southwest Cisco (2), COO Ironhorse, TAY Onyx, and Tasman Zorro.

Sundance Kid sired the Grand Champion Top Herdsman Award winner and the Reserve Champion Top Herdsman Award winner at the 2018 Oklahoma Forage-based Buck Performance Test out of Outlaw daughters.  

I was so impressed with this cross that I drove out to Texas to buy four more Sundance Kid x (Outlaw x A-59) does.  English Toffee is one of five does I have here of that cross and they have shown so far that they cross VERY well with Strike Gold!
