Skywlkr was a "on a whim" purchase that I'm very excited about. I've admired his dam for her productivity being a two time top ten doe and several NAILE and ADGA National Show placings, as well many relatives within the herd who have done the same. He also has some older lines we have not yet tried to incorporate into our herd so I'm excited to see how they cross. With several successful maternal and paternal sisters, most notably is SGCH Begley's-Troubled-Acre Secrets 4*M EX91 who has also placed well at the ADGA National Show on multiple occasions and been on the top ten list. His younger maternal sister was also the high selling Nubian in the 2018 Colorama Sale in Columbus, OH.
While he's been stingy on giving us daughters, the ones we have are very promising. His daughter Wookiee was the 8th place junior kid at the 2018 ADGA National Show in Columbus, OH as an immature kid. Another daughter Kantina was 1st place junior yearling at the 2019 Big E. His son Wolfsbane has been used heavily for our 2019 kids and we are so impressed with his kids already. We are excited to see what the future holds for Skywlkr daughters in our herd! His daughters are consistent in dairy strength with long, lean necks and angularity throughout while still maintaining strength and width throughout. He is also improving mammary systems, especially the high and width of rear udder, strength of medial and teat placement.
We lost Skywlkr before he was collected, but continue to use his genetics through his son *B Hops N Lops Rule the Galaxy and the handful of daughters we have. He is certainly missed!
