ABOUT ROY

​

Roy has been described by his previous owner, Laura Whitlock, as a "once-in-a-lifetime quality buck" that is "able to leave the good alone and improve on the rest (the sign of a great buck!)." He is equally linebred on both his grandsires -- Twin Creeks Rebel W/O A Cause ++*B (ARMCH Twin Creeks BH Bay Watch *++S ++B  x  MCH/GCH Gay-Mor's JJU Nonpareil 3*D 1*M EEEE 92), and Ponders End The Full Monty. Monty's sire, Bravado, is Baywatch's paternal half brother and Monty himself is the sire of both Betty Boop and Dutchess. See Roy's extended pedigree at the bottom of this page.

​

Roy's dam, Dutchess, and her dam, Poppy Seed, were the strongest milk producing line to come from the Poppy Patch herd. Dutchess produced 3.5 to 4 quarts (not lbs) per day at peak during her 3rd freshening in 2011 after kidding with sextuplets that year! According to the Poppy Patch website, her production returned to her more normal level of 2.5 to 3 quarts per day the following year and her udder held up beautifully despite the large volume increase the year prior.

 

Dutchess' dam, Poppy Seed, averaged an impressive 3 quarts per day herself during lactation. She was described by Poppy Patch Farm as "having excellent capacity, strong medial, height, and a perfectly smooth fore... [and] an udder that collapses down to nothing." She was also productive in the show ring with 5 Grand Champion wins and 1 Best Udder. Like Roy's sire, Jiminy, Poppy Seed is also out of Rebel W/O A Cause. 

​

Roy's paternal granddam, Betty Boop, was "very correct overall" with an udder that was "completely glued on all over" according to the Poppy Patch website. Further more, "she [had] one of the most level toplines around and excellent feet and legs tracking strait in the front and having very tight toes which is something Nigerians often need improvement with." She went Grand Champion 3 times, 2 Reserve, 1 Best of Breed and 1 Best Udder of Breed.

​

Three of our six foundation does are Roy's daughters: Isadora, Chocolatina, and Vervain. We are hoping to retain a son out of him in the next couple of years before his fertility declines.
