Mini- Manchas

-A Note About Our Miniatures- 

~We believe building the strongest base foundation is key in breeding a miniature dairy goat. 

~Breeding those first generations as skillfully and carefully as one would with any other breeding program. 

~A mini mancha is more than just throwing a dwarf over a standard. 

~Breeding for  quality,  production, and confirmation. 

~Our priority is NOT higher generation, ear type

~A correct erect eared mini is better than a mediocre elf/gopher eared mini.

~Our PRIORITY is a solid correct udder, high escutcheon, proper leg placement, teat placement, and the  dairy characteristics. 

 ~A solid miniature breeding program takes years to develop. In developing  miniatures we believe in the whole package.

~There are times you go forward a generation and times you go back a generation to focus on a particular trait being improved upon. A kid may be registered as a first generation but look closely, there may be 3, 4, or more generations behind that 1st gen. 

~1st and 2nd  generation minis often have teats placed to the outside rather then centered, this is common and is an area that takes  great skill to improve. The blending of two VERY different types of dairy goats can be challenging.

~A well bred mini  is easily capable of producing  6-8# per day  higher % doe's may yield more. 

~We SELECTIVELY breed for mini's from our show Lamancha and Nigerian Dwarf Lines, therefore only a few are bred yearly

Bingo is a powerful, yet very dairy, doe. Hardy, parasite resistant, keeps her condition easily.  We are very excited about Bingo! Her dam is an excellent producer with a beautiful udder and Bingo has followed her wonderful mom. Bingo is a 5yo, 5th freshener typically producing triplets with each kidding.  This is a powerful dam line. Many of our miniature lamanchas are directly related to this incredible dam. Bingo has exceptional capacity!  Well sprung ribs, flatness of bone, ample spacing, correct angles with beautiful dairy wedge. She passes that width to her offspring!

Improving with each generation.  Below is an example of 3 gens at a recent live show- Bingo (GCH) her eared daughter Strawberry 3yo 3rd freshener (1st both rings) and granddaughter to Bingo: daughter to Strawberry, Shortcake 2yo FF.

She is an excellent forager, very hardy, such an easy keeper and a no fuss goat. Powerful doe with a beautiful mammary. We are so pleased with her FF udder and  her 2nd freshening udder. She has not disappointed. Beautiful lateral attachments, and smooth foreudder excellent orifices and from the first day an easy milker.  Her colored skin on legs and udder unfortunately give her udder an odd look in pictures.  Sass's daughter from 2021 has been retained.

Strawberry is a doe that we were drawn to soon after birth. We love how solid and correct she is. She is also incredibly wide & growthy like her dam, a trait we like to see in Miniature Lamanchas. While she is erect eared we feel she has very correct conformation and will be an asset in our breeding program. Bred to kid as a yearling, to a std buck she kidded a beautiful 6.5 # single doeling with ease.  Daughter Shortcake has been retained.   2nd freshening she kidded triplet does!  3rd freshening triplets again 2b/1d.  We are considering milking her through an extended lactation for 2022. Well attached high and tight udder that is socked on! Beautiful Lateral attachments and milks easily. Teat size and orifices are perfect for hand milking and machine milking.  See her dam and her daughter under Bingo.

Rose is very special to us, her dam Wings & Caprines Princess was a favorite here so we are thankful to have a doe back from that line. She is super sweet, gets along well with all goats, very milk mannered.  Her dam can be found on our reference page and her Grand dam on both sides can be found in our Lamancha pages (current and reference).  Rose kidded buck/doe twins  April 2020. Doeling retained and buckling sold to a breeding program. Very pleased with her mammary. She is slightly uneven after getting hit by another goat several weeks after kidding. Lovely FF udder!  April 2021 she kidded with triplets (2bucks/ 1 doe).

Simone is such a sweet doe and an incredibly easy keeper. Simone has just been a steady goat in every regard. As a 2Yo 2nd freshener Simone was kept in extended lactation for 2 years. We took a break from kidding most of the Minis and Lamanchas for 2022. As a 4YO 3rd Frehener she has not disappointed. She has reached her maturity and developed beautifully. Very correct on her feet and legs, excellent thurl placement, beautiful smooth wide fore udder.  She is a very capacious with a very long bone pattern.

Strawberry's daughter naturally would be named "Shortcake". Strawberry's Shortcake just seemed to fit!  Single to her yearling FF dam she sure stole our hearts!  Born 2 weeks after a large group of kids an almost 3 weeks before the  next group, we were her playmates! She is no stranger to the house! She is super playful and is always good for a jump in our lap!  She has such confidence with her "friends" and gets along beautifully with her goat pals. This lil gal is sure showing some nice qualities and it will be fun watching her grow.  We had hoped to get a pic of the 4 generations all together. This lil gal technically is a 1st gen, but has 3 generations behind her. Sadly we lost Zephyr (Great Grand dam) shortly before these pics were taken, and never got the chance at the amazing heritage she left. All her offspring are lovey, kissy, and clearly inherited her SMILE!  Zephyr- the Smiling Goat is missed. 

Zephyr (Great Grand Dam PB Lamancha)- Bingo (Grand dam 50/50 1st gen) - Strawberry (Dam 50/50 2nd gen) - Shortcake 

At Floyd Va show we managed to get 3 of the generations together. (Above under Bingo)

Shortcake has proven in just 2 freshenings to be a steady milker with great production and a very easy keeper producing well off of grass hay and daily dairy goat feed. She is such a joy in every regard.  She has finished her Virtual Championship and we hope to have more mini shows in the NC region so she may be shown in the live shows.

At just under 6 weeks of age Julia went Reserve Champion in Ring 2 and was 1st in her Jr class in Ring 1 in the Spring 2020 V-ShowFall 2020 V-show she was again RCH.  1st under ring 2 and 3rd in ring 1 placing behind 2 of our other goats. We have high hopes for this doeling!  Very excited to watch her grow and mature!  Due to her incredible capacity she will be bred for a yearling FF to kid in 2021. The breeding that produced Julia is being repeated for 2021.

Jenny's dam "Rondi" was FF 3YO!  Rondi is an exquisite doe! 

Both Rondi's doeling and buckling have been retained for our mini program. 

Jenny was a week old when we snapped these photos to enter her in he v-show. Even at a young age you can clearly see she is a correct doe and has a great future ahead of her. When Jenny was born she was "picked" by Josie (owner and breeder of our Nigerian Dwarf herd). I knew then she wasn't going anywhere and would be Josie's girl! At such a young age she showed such beautiful conformation. Jenny kidded at 11 months and buckling her has been retained. Her first freshening udder is beautiful & buttery soft. 


2021 Jenny's dam set out to her first shows and had her first Linear Appraisal with ADGA.

We are proud to say that "Rondi" is now a finished CH & recieved a LA score of VEEE 90!

Happy was born late in the year and was a single to her yearling dam. With no kids her age she stayed up at the house for about a month until she could go with the rest of the babies. Spoiled and a "follow" us around goat she was pretty independent. Entering the herd with far older baby goats she held her own and had the attitude of "you aren't going to boss me!" We love her spirited lil self!  She is always happy! Her smile reminds us of her Grand dam Zephyr, who we have always referred to as the smiling goat. Happy is joy!  Growthy as all our minis are in their first year she was bred to kid mid 2021. She is a hardy eater with a real hardiness for such a young goat. Love everything about her!. Her first freshening produced twin bucklings , kidding with ease. Her FF udder at 12  months shows great promise and we are excited to see her 2F udder.

Trouble's first show MDGA Floyd,VA 2019   Judge James Oller

Earned Offical Unrestricted Leg

Trouble is a favorite here on the farm! She is an incredibly hardy doe who thrives on forage and pasture over hay/feed. She requires little feed to maintain proper body condition but will still milk extremely well. As of now, Trouble is our most productive Miniature Lamancha and rivals some of the "big girls". A true Lamancha in Miniature.  Trouble is the reason for our love of Miniature Lamanchas, being our first Mini born on our farm we fell in love with this spunky doe soon after she was born.  Her dam is our very loved Millie, a NOA doe. Millie has had both std lamanchas (registered as rec grade) and mini's (registered grade minis).  Very powerful doe yet stands at only 25 1/2" and at maturity 130#.  The does in this line are quite capable of extended lactation and therefore are not bred yearly.  Her width, capacity are incredible!

Pictured at a few days old.

Pictured at 3 and half months old.

So very excited to see Dreamy grow into a young junior doe. Loving everything about this girl!

She was named Dreamy because I have always wanted a black and tan mini lamancha.  When she was born (1 of triplets)  I said MY DREAM GOAT!  She is  so very much what I'd hoped for!  Very powerful doeling with so much capacity and strength of front end she is a joy to look at let alone snuggle. 

Dreamy is my girl. Love her to the moon and back! 

This line is a heavy milk line that lends itself to extended lacation. 

Dreamy freshened with a beautiful doeling and a DOA buckling.

We opted to dry Dreamy off after kidding due to having so many goats in milk and she was quite ancy as a first freshener, having a hard time adjusting to the milkline. She is still brought in and fed on the milkline to help her adjust and will be ready for her 2nd freshening. Her mammary was quite lovely but unfortunately we did not get any pictures.
