With intense sorrow, I must share that we lost Fancy C.C. and her doe kid on April 8, 2020 due to complications with kidding, despite watching her day and night and a C-section. Cause was not able to be determined by UC Davis, but no infectious etiologies were identified and some serious diseases were ruled out, so that was a plus. C.C. was not only my herd queen, and my best doe, she was my heart favorite and my buddy. Her loss has left a huge hole in my heart, as well as my herd, in so many ways. I now cherish her successes from 2019 all the more…

On Nov 17, 2023, I took her back to UC Davis once again for more x-rays/tests to see if there was any hope of helping her. It was not good news. Everything in me wanted to hold on to my special, sweet friend, but there was no way to fix the damage, she was suffering despite increase, daily pain meds, the winter would be brutal to her and the worst yet was that she had lost her place as queen of the herd so other does were pushing her away from the feeders and out of the shed. I poured out my love and appreciation to her through her last breath. I fully realize how rare she was and how blessed I was to call her mine and have her love me back. Good bye my sweet Emmy and thank you for everything.

Spring 2023: Emmy has been retired and there will be no more kids from Emmy. I have no idea how it happened, but the morning of 3/24/23, she was 3 legged lame, holding up her right hind. Later, x-rays & tests at UC Davis resulted in a diagnosis of a cruciate ligament rupture in the right hind, but also osteoarthritis in that leg, and osteoarthritis in her left front as well. Very sad and so unexpected. She is living the pampered life, with daily pain meds to try to keep her comfortable.

When she was born back in 2014, I never could have imagined that Emmy would turn out to be a stand out total performer! Not only is she the sweetest, most compliant goat I have ever had, but she has excelled at everything she has done; winning her way to become a permanent Champion early on, earning her Superior Genetics once she got a chance to be on milk test, scoring VEEE 90 at 7 years of age, and as an 8 year old, with no special treatment or supplements, milking 1187 lb with 93 lb of butterfat and 48 lb of protein in 2022, in addition to being a wonderful producer of quality doe kids all through the years!

2nd place junior at the 2023 ADGA National Show

2023 ADGA National Show 2nd place junior behind her twin sister who won the class. Photo taken July 2023 – 3 months old

It was an unbelievable thrill to start off the 2023 ADGA National Show with Ritzy and her twin sister going 1 – 2 to win the junior class. This long, elegant, stylish doe kid handled the show like a little pro, even though it was her very first show ever! Being a TWINCREEKS RM WATERMARK granddaughter, as well as a granddaughter of GCH Sonview Ranch Fancy C.C. 1*M, EEEE 91 (at 7 years old,) who won the aged doe class with best udder at the 2019 ADGA National show, Ritzy has a lot to offer a new herd in and of herself and by merit of the genetics behind her. She is only being offered to a new performance home because I am reducing my herd size while retaining her twin sister and their littermate brother. I am willing to work with transporters to get her to the best possible new home.

Ritzy’s twin sister, Sonview Ranch Regal was 1st place junior at the 2023 ADGA National Show.

Regal went to her first show 3 weeks before Nationals, and was Reserve Champion under the first judge in strong competition, Champion under the 2nd judge, and then she was awarded Best Jr of Show, despite only being 9 weeks old and showing against some great standard herds!

Full sister, Sonview Ranch Nazira, was 11th in the largest class at the 2023 ADGA Nationals out of 85 two year old milkers! She recently appraised VVVE 89, with 32 in rump width, 33 in fore udder attachment, 34 in rear udder height and 33 in rear udder arch. She scored V in shoulder assembly, front legs and rump, with an E in back and rear legs!

10th place Int kid 2019 ADGA National Show

Tribute is an interesting doe to show. She and her twin sister often traded off beating each other in the show ring as kids. Tribute did well the many times she was shown as a kid in 2019, but of course the most exciting was when she made the cut in the huge class and placed Top Ten at the 2019 ADGA National Show (with her twin sister placing 12th and our other Sonview Ranch doe kid placing 15th in that class.) Things got even more interesting when she hit the show ring as a milker. Under 12 judges in the last 2 years of being shown as a milker, she was either at the top of her class or way down the line. Judges either really like her or they don’t. She has won multiple huge classes in Amazing competition and then in the next ring she has placed 8th or 9th…Personally, I really like her, as long as I don’t let her get overconditioned, as she has many really good qualities.

Nessa and her twin sister, Neevia, are like two peas in a pod. Thanks to their sire, Alethia DOH Cosmic Wonder, they are both an improvement over their dam, Sonview Ranch Emmy VEEE 90 and like Emmy, they are calm, quiet and so sweet. As kids in the show ring, they placed right next to each other, almost always in the top 3, and although Neevia was usually right ahead of Nessa, Nessa did beat her sister at one show.

Shown in 2022, as a yearling milker, Nessa was 3rd at both shows, only behind her herd mates Sonview Ranch Nazira and Sonview Ranch Extra Blessing both times.

2023 was really rough on Nessa, but she is back to her beautiful self in 2024! Her twin sister, Neevia was named Champion in great competition this summer, then was Res Champion at the California State Fair. Nessa will be ready to hit the show ring in 2025. She is available to a performance home that will include her in Linear Appraisal and hopefully give her a chance to shine in the show ring.

Firebird is a pleasure to have around. She did well in the show ring as a kid! She and her paternal sister, Sonview Ranch Firefly, were very competitive despite great competition in our area. Firebird won her class 3 times then was Champion or Res Champion each of those times. She was 2nd at 5 other shows but at 4 of those, Firefly won the class with Firebird right behind her in 2nd. She continued to do well in the show ring as a milking yearling in 2019, winning under 3 judges, placing 2nd to Firefly once and 3rd twice! She liked staying home when all shows were cancelled in 2020 and when we went back to showing later in 2021, she did not really want to be there and was down the line in her classes at 2 shows. Then at the last show of 2021, she got back with it to place 2nd, only behind herdmate, Sonview Ranch Delightful Dale, beating Firefly, who was 3rd. Honoring her desire to stay home more, she was only shown twice in 2022. She again was 2nd only to Delightful Dale, with Firefly 3rd at the first show, then she won the class at the last show, beating Firefly (Delightful Dale was not shown there.) She is a competitive show doe, who also produces really nice kids that do well in the show ring.

She is a consistent milker, with a long, level lactation. For example, after having only a single kid in March 2023, milked 2.9 lb then was extremely consistent in each milk test the rest of the year.

In Aug 2023, as a 5 year old, 5th freshener, who kidded with a single in March, Firebird appraised VEEE 90. She scored 35 in fore udder attachment, 32 in rear udder height and 34 in rear udder arch.

For your information: Sonview Ranch Corey is a paternal brother to GCH Sonview Ranch Fancy C.C. 1*M EEEE 91 (7-00.) who won the aged doe class at the 2019 ADGA National Show and was also awarded best udder in class there. She was also a very good milker, producing 919 lb with 59 lb fat and 44 lb protein in 270 days at 7 years of age. Corey’s dam, Castle Rock IM Skype is a littermate sister to ARMCH-GCH CRF Castle Rock Tuscan Sun 1*M *D VEEE 90, the dam of the 2019 ADGA National Champion with National Best Udder of Breed.

Michelangelo’s dam: GCH Sonview Ranch Delightful Dale finally got to enter the show ring as a milker in 2021, and earned her permanent championship in short order. She was appraised on 5/31/21, scoring VEVE 89 as a 2nd freshening 3 year old; with a 33 in dairyness, 33 in rump angle, 34 in fore udder attachment and 36 in rear udder height! She is also turning out to be a good little milker, producing 934 lb of milk, 61 lb of fat and 40 lb of protein in 305 days when she was a first freshening yearling.

SGCH Sonview Ranch Emmy 2*M VEEE 90 (07-01) was 10th place at the 2019 ADGA National Show in the 5- 6 year old class And she milked 1134 lb, with 83 lb fat and 53 lb protein in 306 days plus miking 966 lb with 72 lb fat and 42 lb protein in only 259 days last year at 7 years of age. Emmy is an outstanding all around doe. Not only does she milk well, appraise highly and excel in the show ring, she has been a wonderful, consistent producer of quality kids all these years AND to top it off, she is the sweetest, most compliant doe in our herd and she passes on her amazing disposition to her kids.

Posy was on the doe kid sales list for months for only $700, but when no one had snatched her up after 5 months, I opted to keep her, so I clipped her and took her to the next show. She won her class, and went on to be named Champion Jr in the very first ring of her very first show with outstanding competition.

Pelia started off her show career by winning a nice class in Aug 2022, as a tiny kid, under a highly respected judge.
When shown this year as a dry yearling, the judge really worked us, then placed her 2nd to Rz Acres Prima D’Onna, who then went Champion, with Promising Pelia being awarded Res Champion Jr. The competition at the next show was quite intense, but Pelia was 5th under the first judge then 2nd under the second judge out of the class of 21 dry yearlings. At our final show the end of Sept 2023, Pelia won a beautiful class then was Reserve Champion Jr. It was a very nice ending to her show career as a junior. I am looking forward to getting to see her freshen in 2024, as I expect she will have a really nice udder to compliment her beautiful body.

This unassuming little doe was a solid performer in the show ring all last year, as an intermediate kid.

In 2022, Phoenix placed top 3 in very competitive classes, 8 of the 11 times shown, winning her class under 2 of those judges.

Res Jr Champion 1x

Firefly is a very quiet, mellow, unassuming doe and so easy to have around, just like her sweet dam, Emmy. Firefly is long and level with wonderful rump width and fantastic body capacity yet she is still feminine with good dairy strength.

She had a good show season as a kid, winning her class in steep competition under 5 juddges, then being named Res Champion once and Champion twice. At other shows, she was 2nd to her paternal sister, Sonview Ranch Firebird. In 2019, as yearling milkers, the rivalry between Firefly and Firebird stepped up a notch. Firefly won her class under 2 judges then she was 2nd at three shows, most of those times she was 2nd to Firebird. Shown only twice in 2021, she was 5th once then 3rd behind Firebird who was 2nd. In 2022, she placed 3rd at both shows, but in 2023, she was placed ahead of Firebird at the only show they went to, so Firefly did very well considering the competition!

Firefly is milking well and has been very consistent this year. She has now been milking for 6 months and on the 9/6/23 milk test she produced 3.2 lb of milk. She has milked 3 lb or more on all 7 tests this year and is projected to milk about 846 lb on a 305 lactation for the year.

In Aug 2023, as a 5 year old, 5th freshener, who kidded with quads on 3/6/23, she appraised VVEE 90. She has the type of rump I have been breeding for and scored a 39 in rump width so I was pleased with that. She scored 34 in fore udder attachment, 33 in rear udder height and 32 for rear udder arch.

Jr Champion 1x

At her very first show ever, Mayla was Champion Jr Nigerian Dwarf in outstanding competition (9/5/21.) (Award ribbons were not available at the show so we could not take a win photo that day.) As a first freshening 2 year old in 2022, going to shows was a challenge to her. It took several shows for her to settle in and feel comfortable. She placed in the top 5 under every judge but was always in the shadow of herd mate, Sonview Ranch Martina, who was our standout star that year and usually Sonview Ranch Mitzy stood ahead of her in the classes too. This year she got to go to one show so far and I was delighted when she was 2nd only standing behind Sonview Ranch Marina!

I am pleased with Mayla on the milk stand. Not only is she well behaved but she is so easy to milk. She produced 3.8 lb on her first milk test and all 7 tests have been between 3.8 – 2.3 lb. Her projected 305 production is estimated at 859 lb of milk, which is fine with me for a 2nd freshener.

In the show ring, Blessing and her twin sister, Bliss, traded off winning their classes as kids. In 2022, Blessing was a yearling milker and I was pleasantly surprised when she was top 3 at every show, going 2nd only to Sonview Ranch Nazira at 3 of those shows. I expect she will keep improving with more freshenings and I look forward to that.

Jr Champion 1x
Res Jr Champion 1x

Treasure is a character, full of life and personality. She had an intriguing show season as a kid. At their first show, which was a major show, her twin sister, Sonview Ranch Tribute beat her and went on to win Res Champion Jr under one judge. Under a different judge at that same show, Treasure was placed ahead of her sister and this was repeated under the next judge, but under the 4th judge at that show, Treasure not only beat her sister to win the class, but was then named Res Champion Jr herself.

At their next show, Treasure was 2nd, behind a different herdmate who went on to be named Res Champion Jr, with Tribute placing 3rd behind them, but under the next judge at that show, Tribute not only won the class but was awarded Champion Jr.

To top off her junior show career, Treasure was 12th place in the large intermediate kid class at the 2019 ADGA National Show, with her twin sister, Tribute placing 10th and her herdmate, Lena, placing 14th!

I am pleased with Treasure as a milking doe but unfortunately for her, herd mates her age are more “showy” than she is, so she has not gotten to go to the shows.

I will say that I am proud of Treasure’s 2022 lactation. Some may seriously question how I can say that when she milked less than last year and her numbers are not at all impressive on paper? In 2022, she produced 744 lb with 53 lb butterfat and 38 lb protein in 305 days in her 3rd lactation, so why would I be proud of that? Well, because the numbers do not always tell the whole story. The part I am proud of is that despite the fact that she only had a single kid, was on a diet to loose the “baby fat” and she was not being fed grain, she still produced 744 lb with 53 lb butterfat and 38 lb protein in 305 days. Not being fed grain can be a deal breaker in milk production but she did not let that stop her from being the dairy doe that she is.

I welcomed Elfin Acres B Josette to my herd shortly after she was bred in 2016. In the spring of 2017, after helping her deliver, I was impressed with her newborn doe kid, whom I named Jalena. As Jalena has grown and matured, she just keeps getting more beautiful. On a day to day basis, it is a pleasure to get to see Jalena as I appreciate her style and beauty.

1x Jr Champion after winning her class every time shown as a junior (6 different judges)(2017)
Shown 3 times as a yearling milker, she placed 1st, 2nd and 4th. (2018)
As a 2 year old she did well in the show ring in large classes, winning once and placing top 4 at seven of 9 shows. (2019)
All our shows were cancelled in 2020. Milking 21 does was not manageable for me so I made the decision to dry up the mature does who had already earned milk stars, including Jalena just 62 days after kidding, to lighten my load. With the shows still shut down going into 2021, it was a repeat. Unfortunately that meant that when a few shows were allowed later in 2021, she was dry so she did not get to go back into the show ring.

However, her daughters that I have retained have carried on the success in the show ring. Her 2019 daughter (by Alethia SHH Gunsmoke N Lace,) Sonview Ranch Lena had a very good show season as a kid, including placing 15th in a huge class at the 2019 ADGA National show and went on to win Champion them Best in Show for her new owner up in Oregon. Jalena’s 2018 daughter (by Alethia DOH Cosmic Wonder,) Sonview Ranch Delightful Dale went Champion as a dry yearling then shocked me by winning Best Jr in Show. She finally got a chance to get into the show ring as a milker in 2021 and she did us proud. She finished her championship in short order and was awarded Best Doe in Show in outstanding competition at her last show! Delightful Dale is not only beautiful and correct, she can put the milk into the pail. She produced 934 lb of milk, 61 lb of fat and 40 lb of protein as a first freshening yearling.

Twin Pears Jalena is not just a pretty face, but she has out produced herself in her daughters.

Age	Lactation	DIM	lb Milk	% Fat	lb Fat	% Protein	lb Protein

3-11	4	121	172	5.8	10	4.1	7

note: in 2020, with all shows and linear appraisal cancelled, it was not worth it to me to keep milking 21 does twice a day, so I dried up some of my does who had already earned their milk stars, including Jalena. Unfortunately, I did not manage Jalena as well as I should have and she got fat, very fat. After she kidded last year, I decided I should dry her up so that I could help her get back to a healthy weight, so once again she only had a short time in milk.

Lemmy is one of those does who is such a pleasure to have around. She is calm, cooperative and is a solid performer in all areas.

She is a strong contender in the show ring. Last year, as a 2 year old, she won her class at 2 shows and was top 5 in highly competitive California classes at 6 of her 7 shows.

On her first milk test this year, she produced 4.0 lb when 15 days fresh

She continues to improve in all areas as she is maturing so the future looks bright for this little doe.

This young doe is so stylish. She is a real eye catcher.

At her first show ever, in Sept 2021, Niva not only won the junior kid class, but was named Reserve Champion! Her maternal sister, Sonview Ranch Mitzy, was awarded Champion!
Then in 2022, at a show with deep and tough competition, Niva was named Champion Jr.
She is a quiet, mellow little doe who is easy to have around and so good in the show ring.
Her dam, Sonview Ranch Litzy, is doing well in the competitive shows in Texas and her granddam, Sonview Ranch Gemma, is still winning shows in Arkansas.
Niva is young and I look forward to watching her improvement as she matures, as her dam and granddam did before her.

I jumped at the chance to buy Mirage as a bottle baby back in 2018. What an amazing pedigree he has! Both his sire and dam are animals to be admired. He is a grandson of the fabulous, multi-champion producing Guy Noir & Tuscan Sun, the dam of the current National Champion, who also had best udder. As if that is not enough, he is also the grandson of Cleveland Sage, the sire of the current National Champion, (along with several other champion daughters, including one who appraised 92, and two others who appraised 91 so far) Not only does he come from proven stock that excels in the show ring and scores well on Linear Appraisal, these lines also have good milk production.

Mirage himself was just appraised 5/31/21, scoring VVE 88. I have 3 of his daughters in milk. Litzy is 2 years old and appraised VEVV 88 (We would like to see better teat placement on her but she inherited that from her dam, otherwise her udder is Oh SO NICE.) Mirage’s yearling daughter, My Valentine, scored +VVA 83, with a fore udder score of 34, compared to her dam’s fore udder score of 28. His other yearling daughter, Martina, appraised the highest of my 8 first fresheners, scoring VEVV 86.

I am keeping 5 of his daughters as I make him available to a new herd.

VVEV 88 (3-02)

Gemma milked 809 lbs with 53 lbs of fat & 39 lbs P/S last year in just 246 days. She earned her AR milk star in those 246 days on test but I sure wish I had given her the chance to go the full 305 days to see what she really could have done. She was Jr Champion as a kid then as a yearling milker she won her class under 7 different judges and was top 3, fourteen out of 17 times shown. She has so much else going for her that most judges put her up at the top of her class despite her teat placement.

Gemma is currently dry since every show I had planned to go to, including the ADGA National show, as well as Linear Appraisal was cancelled this year.
