πWe have an exciting new addition!!π
Or semi new...
I'll never forget going to pick my Mini Land Ranch doelings up back in January 2023. I still remember conversing with Alesia and her explaining that these genetics can milk. PERIOD.
Now I've had my fair share of different genetics here over the years and some good quality milkers but definitely noticed that Mini Land Ranch Build Me Up 7*M ELITE GVEE 87 aka Buttercup showed herself to be the most consistent heavy producer as just a 2 yr old 2F! That girl milked an average of well over 4 lb throughout her lactation and would've easily went over 1200 lb had I finished her on milk test last year!
And yes I definitely regretted letting my other Mini Land Ranch doe go after her FF...I mean she milked an impressive 3 lb on her 1st milk test! π€¦ββοΈ
Well just as we all sometimes do things we later question(like why did I ever totally sell out my herd last Fall π), I've been longing for these genetics again...
I happened across someone dispersing their herd out in the Midwest and noticed a couple Mini Land Ranch does available π€€ BUT between the asking amount plus transport costs well they were out of my affordable range for sure!
But I noticed the one was a full littermate sister to one I used to have here, which prompted me to reach out to the person I sold her to, who happens to only live a little over an hour away from me, who happens to need to downsize, and happened to be okay with letting her come back to me π π(God is so good and oh how He works in mysterious ways! π)... And thank you so much Mike and Tara Nittany Meadow Farm for taking such great care of CC!π₯°
So reintroducing:
Mini Land Ranch K Choc Chip aka CC
CC freshened here back in March 2024 with buck/doe twins. She had a lovely FF udder and although I didn't finish her on milk test, she was on track to earn her milk star β
β€Her dam is Mini Land Ranch J Jemima 4*M/3*D ELITE VEEE 90
πHer sire is Amethyst Acres Z Beau-Kyle +*B/*S ELITE whose dam is Sugar Moon VIC Beau-Kaye 3*M/4*D ELITE who was on the 2018 Top Ten Breed Leaders List for Milk & Protein!
Yes last pic you can see she is in with Blue right now...She freshened twice in her other herd, last freshened in October 2025, so I'm excited to get her bred and see what her 4F will give! π€©
Also to add because I brought one in I did end up letting one go...
Wings & Caprines Red Wine was unfortunately getting picked on pretty badly by herd queen Keno. For some reason Keno did not like her π And because I already bonded with Keno, I felt it best to hopefully find Winey a better situation where she can shine a bit brighter without being constantly singled out.
So anyone wanting to follow Winey's journey please head on over to Fulmer Acres Homestead LLC
And thank you Kirsti, for giving Winey a good home where her genetics can shine for you guys as you venture into the show world π
