POLLED. BLUE EYES.

Haze truly checks all the boxes—polled, blue-eyed, eye-catching color, and a wonderfully sweet temperament! When we bred for the 2021 season, our one wish was to get a polled, blue-eyed buckling from either Pixie or June Bug—and Pixie delivered right out of the gate with the first kid of the year! With the sale of our buck, Levi, in the fall of 2020, Haze gave us the perfect opportunity to retain his exceptional genetics in our herd.

Now maturing into a well-balanced, correct buck, Haze has already proven himself in the breeding pen. He’s sired some outstanding kids with strong structure, flashy markings, and great dairy potential. He’s especially known for passing on beautiful roaning and impressive width to his offspring.

One of his 2023 daughters, Polly, out of Sapphire x Haze, made us proud by earning Grand Champion Junior Doe at the Memorial Classic in Brenham, TX, on May 27, 2023!

Rafter O Ravine Haze

Haze comes from a line of excellence on both sides. His dam, Pixie, hails from the respected Green Gables lines known for superior milk production. She brings a splash of color, solid conformation, and a bold personality to match. Pixie was a joy to milk, thanks to her excellent teat size and large orifices. She also proved herself in the show ring as a producer—her daughter Foxy was named Grand Champion Junior Doe at the Hill Country Mini Milker Texas Two-Step on June 2, 2019.

Haze’s sire, Levi, also brings blue eyes, polled genetics, and strong dairy lines to the table, making Haze a genetic package we’re proud to have representing Rafter O. We’re excited to continue building on his legacy as his kids carry his best traits into the next generation!

Name Origin

When Haze was born, it was a very dreary rainy evening. Visibility was almost zero. Pixie kidded three beautiful kids, Ravine Haze, Valley Vapor and Canyon Mist…all weather-related names to match the mood of the moment.

A ravine is a deep, narrow gorge with steep sides. Haze is a slight obscuration of the lower atmosphere, typically caused by fine suspended particles.
