Sins is my favorite of our senior herdsires. We
have always admired the Gypsy line and especially admired Auburn so when
a son became available we were thrilled to be able to add him to our
herd. Sins is a beautiful buck....long, tall, level over his topline,
tremendous spring of rib and width of chest and escutcheon and stands on
a extremely correct feet and legs. Sin's dam, Auburn,
was shown 3X and was 3X GCH Senior Doe. His sire brings back some of the
genetics which we have in many of our older does that have worked so
successfully for us.
Sins did not disappoint when he presented us with
so many lovely daughters this year. Of the 4 daughters in our main show
string, 3 of them earned dry legs and the 4th was 2X RGCH!! They are
such uniform does and more than one judge commented on the uniformity
and conformation of the does that comprised our Junior Get of
Sire....which was 3X 1st place Junior Get of Sire this summer.
Sins gave us limited doelings in his second year of breeding...coming
into rut back in April, he was ready for a break by the time we hit
breeding season so was only bred to a handful of later does. Sin's
first daughter, Raven, freshened with a lovely mammary improving over
her dam's mammary.
Sins was my "go to" buck in 2019....easily the calmest and most
cooperative of the bucks during breeding, he was used pretty extensively
presenting us with many lovely daughters and sons. Sin's
second daughter, Pixie Dust, freshened this spring and she is a "wow"
doe! Easily my favorite of the young does, she is tall, dairy with a
lovely mammary and tons of milk.
Sins has 2 daughters on the 2021 Elite Doe list,
Pixie Dust and Angel Dust (both out of Gypsy). His daughters did
extremely well in the show ring in the summer of 2021, with Lolipop
earning her dry leg at the Iowa Spring Classic and standing 4th (out of
36) senior kids at the National Show. Mimosa was 2x GCH Jr. Doe at the
Iowa Spring Classic and stood 5th out of 38 in the dry yearling class at
Nationals. A granddaughter, Cuddles, was 9th in that same senior kid
class. His milking daughters also stood well with Angel Dust
standing 13th in the milking yearling class as a very young immature
yearling milker. Angel earned her 1st unrestricted leg when she was
named GCH Senior doe (over a large group of very competitive older does)
at the Iowa Spring Classic. The highlight of appraisal
was when Sins earned a 91 EEE score!!
Sins continues to be my favorite buck....a big,
gentle giant even when in full rut. He's just a big sweetheart!
We have several repeat breedings planned for this fall as well as
some exciting new ones! |
