Kidding Schedule

Please read through the updated Sales Policy before reserving or purchasing from Red Lotus.

To reserve a kid, a $50 non-refundable deposit is required to secure a place in line.
Any money paid into a sale will not be returned. A contract of the sales policy will be sent to every buyer; the buyer will get to keep a signed copy and send one back.

ATTENTION:
All bucklings will be wethered unless reserved before the age of 7 - 8 weeks old; I just don't have room to keep little bucky-boys if they don't sell.
If you want a buckling, please specify.

If you see a pair you like? Not sure what you're looking for? Just plain curious about a particular buck or doe?
Feel free to Contact Me!

We will be looking to retain a son from him and more daughters. Contact us if interested in him.

No reservations will be taken at this time.

His price will be $400 firm.

Tentatively due April 22nd, 2012.

All kids available

Notes:
I sure loved Beauty's dam and her sire just took MCH, making him a dual champion buck. Beauty's full littermate brother also took a grand champion leg as well. So I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how she freshens, her mother was long and elegant with a fantastic FF udder. Just go and look at the pedigree on these two and you'll see some of the greats of the Nigerian breed in there.

At first I wanted to pair her with Comanche, but the more I look at both of these two, the more I think this could yield a very nice set of kids suited for show and milking ability.

Tentatively due April 12th, 2012.

All kids available

Notes:
I really like what Cosmo gave me here in this little doe. Combined with how very dairy Tribble is and her wonderful udder, I expect nice things from this girl. I decided to switch out the buck for this doe, I think Comanche will be great for T'Pau.

Kids should drip dairy and the udders on doelings should be absolutely fabulous. Toplines should be nice and level, there should be great width throughout and the kids I suspect will be nice and sharp. The bloodlines on both of these animals is wonderful.

Due March 11th, 2012
Blue Eyes possible.
Polled possible.

1st doeling might be breeder retained.

Notes:
I really love this girl, my only wish is sharper/tighter withers on her but the right buck ought to fix that. Hook will probably fix that, and not to mention the rumps on these kids ought to be fantastic as Hook corrects them. Sky is a nice solid, square doe that's long as a freight train and I think it will mix nicely with Hook; both of these animals have great dairy character. Kids ought to be square, level throughout, in-proportion, and udders should be very nice too.

Sky only had a single kid her first time so her udder was understandably small, I'm really hoping to see what it will blossom into now. She showed me a smooth foreudder, good teat placement and length, a nice medial and nice side attachments.

Due March 16th, 2012.
Blue eyes possible
Moonspots possible
Kids out of his pairing will be $200 this season.

1st moonspotted buck/doe breeder retained.

Notes:
Kitsune is going to be one of the lucky does to be paired up with Image. He's a fairly stylish dairy buck with a nicely porportioned body, good brisket extension and chest floor. High tight withers and a pretty level rump set over good width between his hocks. I would like to see more rear leg angulation but hopefully the kids get that from Kitsune. Image socks some nice udders on his girls with teat placement staying fairly correct on most, I think the dam has a bit of influence on that also, so I'm really hoping for some great kids!

I will only retain one (moonspotted only) kid from either Tribble or Kitsune.

Due March 16th, 2012
Moonspots possible
Kids out of this pairing will be $200 this season.

1st moonspotted buck/doe possibly breeder retained.
2nd doe reserved (NM)

Notes:
I'm actually really excited about this pairing and replace my original match for Pocky (who will be bred for Fall '12 instead). I love Tribble's daughter and I think Image will match very nicely with her, hopefully yielding some very dairy little kids with a better topline than Tribble has. I am hoping to see more width in the chest floor and extension of brisket, plus some correction on her feet toing out would be nice.

I will only retain one (moonspotted only) kid from either Tribble or Kitsune.

DesertNanny BR Comanche Moon *S

Fall 2012
Kids out of this pairing will be $250 to $300

1st doeling breeder reserved

Notes:
I can just see the milk flowing from this pairing now. If Comanche corrects the teat placement on Pocky and puts a little bit better side and rear attachments on the kids, I will be such a happy breeder.

I cannot say enough about the genetics both of these animals pack. Pedigrees can be viewed on their respective pages, just have a look for yourself! Pocky consistantly milks half a gallon a day for me and she's always been hard to dry off when I need her to. Super awesome personalities on both of these animals, and I feel the conformation should be really nice on the kids. Hopefully we'll get some good rumps on them.

Lost Valley EJ Pocky Bliss
Senior Doe
Pocky MAY be for sale after kidding and milk testing.
Contact me if interested.
Deposits on Pocky will not be taken for the time being.
Her price will be $400 firm.

Buck TBA

Fall 2012
All kids will be available.

Notes:
I am real excited to see Legacy freshen, I just had too many other does due to kid for spring for me to want to add more. Hopefully the extra time to mature will pay off, I have high hopes for this girl following in her grand-dam's footsteps. Her teat placement is currently correct, so I'm confident in that aspect of her future udder.
