This fancy doe kid has rattled my belief that I can get a good idea of what a kid looks like in the first week of life. At birth, she was very long and clearly beautiful but definitely more refined, lacking the substance of bone and width of body, especially width of rump (which I am focused on improving) compared to her littermate sister, Shakira. Since they were both nice kids, I decided to retain her sister. Later, her sister had a bit of a reaction to the C, D & T vaccine, so I could not take her to their first show in May as planned, so I took Sleek instead.
That made it extra exciting when Sleek made the Top 10 cut in the huge classes under all 4 judges, at the prestigious REDGA show, and was 2nd place under one judge, then WON the class under another judge!
At our next show a month later, she was 11th out of a class of 38, then 14th out of 28…
At State Fair in July, Shakira won the class with Sleek right behind her in 2nd place! Shakira went on to be named Res Champion Jr of the California State Fair.
At the outstanding Sonoma County Fair in Aug 2024, Sleek WON the class, with Shakira in 2nd. By this time, Sleek had matured with good bone, width of body and her rump was almost as wide as her sister’s!
At our last show of the year, in Sept, Sleek was 2nd in the class with Shakira 9th, so go figure…
Sleek’s unexpected development and improvements in bone, body width and most notably in rump width, earned her one of the few spots to stay in my herd as a retained 2024 doe kid. This is one doe kid that is clearly getting better as she matures.

This kid is SUPER special to me. First off, I had made the really difficult decision to offer her dam, Sonview Ranch Firebird, for sale to a new show home. Even though Firebird is an EX 90 doe, I have yearling does coming up that I think are going to be even better and I have to reduce my herd size! 2) Firebird had only ultrasounded with a single, so I was praying that it would be a keeper doe kid to carry on for Firebird in my herd since Firebird has so many good qualities. April 8, 2024, Firebird delivered that single kid seen in the ultrasound – a buck – then proceeded to deliver my “bonus” kid, a beautiful doe kid! 3) To make her even more special, this doe kid’s sire is the outstanding, Rosasharn CB Katmandoo, and I am So happy to have another doe kid by him. 4) Firebird went to a good new show home in Ohio, but I have her sweet & gorgeous daughter, Solace, here to comfort me when I miss her and question if I did the right thing…
Solace’s first show was the CA State Fair in July. She placed 2nd in the junior class, right behind her herdmate, Sonview Ranch Superlative! Whereas her dam was shy and chose one human to love and call her own, (my husband!) Solace has an outgoing personality and she loved meeting all the people at State Fair.
At the intensely competitive Sonoma County Fair she was 5th.
She finished off her show season by placing 5th in our last show of the year in Sept.
I cherish this sweet, beautiful little doe kid and look forward to watching her mature and blossom.

(Alethia DOH Cosmic Wonder +B x Twin Pears Jalena 1*M VVEV 87 (4-01))
GCH Sonview Ranch Delightful Dale 2*M VEEE 92 (07-02) did not get to make her show ring debut as a milker until late in 2021, (due to Covid shut downs) when she was a 2nd freshening 3 year old. How encouraging it was when she was Res Champion under one judge in the top notch competition at the REDGA show! Then in quick order, she won Champion at the next couple shows, and to top it off in grand style, she was awarded Best in Show at the last show of the season!
At the 2024 California State Fair, Dale really had it all together. She was named Champion, Best Udder of Breed and then Total Performer! She was the driving force in group classes, as part of our 1st place Produce of Dam, 1st place Dam & daughter, 1st place Dairy herd, as well as winning Best 3 Females (Dale, Lainey, Neevia)
Sonview Ranch Lando, a Twincreeks RM Watermark son out of Sonview Ranch Fancy C.C. EEEE 91 (07-00) who Won the aged doe class with Best Udder of class at the 2019 ADGA National Show) is Superlative’s sire, which makes her a paternal sister to Sonview Ranch Regal – who went Champion and then Best in Show Jr, at her very first show last year as a young kid. Regal’s next show was the 2023 ADGA National Show and she WON her class, with her littermate sister in 2nd place, right behind her. Another paternal sister is Sonview Ranch Nazira 3*M EEEE 92 (04-04) (pending ADGA), who was 11th place out of 85 two year olds at the ADGA 2023 Nationals and 10th place at the 2025 ADGA National Show. Lando is producing some outstanding daughters and Saracina certainly has the pedigree behind her to excel in every way!
She is one to watch!
