G6S Normal by Parentage

Pancho is a very masculine two-tone chamoisee, moon-spotted, blue-eyed buck that isn’t good at picture taking. His pictures don’t do him justice. You must see him in person! He is maturing very nicely. Pancho is the result of a merge of two great lines in our herd! We are ecstatic to use him on more of our does for 2024!

Clover is a beautiful two-tone chamoisee doeling with blue eyes. She is very feminine and has a great topline and overall conformation. Clover’s pedigree is outstanding on both sides. Her dam, Clair, comes from top Nubian herds. Indy, her sire, is a purebred Mini Nubian with lineage back to quality, foundation Mini Nubian herds. Her udder is amazing…high attachment, good teat size, and good capacity. Clover is a FINISHED CHAMPION with MDGA Live Shows!

Tundra is our spectacular buck from out West. He brings in a powerhouse pedigree of champs and milk stars. He’s got great conformation, and greatly improves his kids! Tundra also has his *B – milk star. AND…Tundra has three Reserve Grand Champion wins in the MDGA Virtual Show!

Name Origin

Firewheel or Indian Blanket is a popular annual growing 1-2(-3) ft. tall. The hairy stem is usually much-branched and becomes woody at the base late in the season. Branched stems, mostly leafy near the base, have showy flower heads with rays red at base, tipped with yellow, each with 3 teeth at broad end. The well-known flower heads are 1-2 in. across with a red center and a yellow outer band. Occasionally the three-cleft rays are solid orange or yellow. The disk flowers in the center are brownish red.

Frequent along roadsides in the Southwest, these wildflowers stand like hundreds of showy Fourth of July pinwheels at the top of slender stalks. Varieties are popular in cultivation, for they tolerate heat and dryness. Among several species in the Southwest, some flowers are entirely yellow.
