Here's why AppleJo Farms chose 3 Tiny Hill Nigerian Does and 1 Tiny Hill Farm Nigerian Buck-Tavish, which all come from Does on the ADGA Top Ten elite list, to be the foundation of AppleJo Farms Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goat Herd:

Breeder, Larissa Mullen states: "In 2022 we had ten does on the ADGA elite list. We’ve got dairy stars for days, and all our bucks are *B with daughters, sisters, or both daughters and full sisters on milk test. We’ve got two ADGA Young Sire Development Program Qualifiers, and in 2020 we had two ADGA Top Ten does. We are thrilled and completely shocked to announce how many Tiny Hill Farm goats made the August 2023 Elite list. FIFTEEN!" This is the next update:  Tiny Hill Farm Nigerians have extremely competitive milking genetics, including two Top Ten does in 2020, 15 Elite goats in August 2023, 14 Elite goats in December 2023, and four ADGA Young Sire Development Program Qualifiers in 2020.

Tavish is a *B buck and his sire is also a *B buck. What is a *B buck?

A buck is awarded his *B designation only when a sufficient number of a goat’s progeny have earned their milking stars, then that goat also earns its milking stars. For bucks, this is the *B (ADGA) designation.

There are many details associated with earning the milking designations; however, stars and pluses in the pedigree are a good indicator that the goat has great genetic potential for milk production.

Tavish has DNA on file & Alpha S1 Casein results: AA

Understanding Alpha S1 Casein DNA Testing:

The gene underlying the production of alpha-s1 casein in goat's milk shows polymorphisms which affect the amount of protein and fat produced. This test detects variants known to be correlated with high and low production levels of alpha-s1 casein.

 Higher levels of alpha-s1 casein are associated with the best cheese making. 

Explanation of Tavish' Results:

• Goats with any combination of "high" variants (A/A, A/B, B/B) will produce high amounts of alpha-s1 casein.
• Tavish test results: A/A (Two alleles are reported, one inherited from each parent. Both Tavish Sire & Dam have high variants of alpha-s1 casein). Wow!
