2018 Kidding Schedule

Unless otherwise noted, doelings and bucklings are $350; wethers are $100 or two for $150.  Reservations prior to kidding are taken on a first-come, first-served basis via our contact form, and Took a Leap Farm reserves the right to retain any kid born on the farm.  There is no fee for a reservation until kids are born and selected, at which point a non-refundable fee of $100, payable online, is required to hold a kid (or two wethers) until pick-up.

Sugar Moon BL Candy Crush
Took a Leap Right Back Atcha

This breeding should bring length to this petite little girl, who freshened for the first time in 2017 with three adorable little boys.

​Did not settle.
Sugar Moon Trixie Belden

Old Mountain Farm Tasha Tudor
Took a Leap Right Back Atcha
4/10/18
Love love love Tasha (VEEV 90)...she's the bomb around these parts.  Our biggest producer, TT has produced a number of gorgeous kids who share her talent on the milkstand.  Breeder to retain one doeling.

Did not settle -- so disappointing!
Took a Leap Encore
Took a Leap Right Back Atcha
4/10/18
We love Encore's conformation and productivity -- she's small but mighty!  This breeding was a bit of an ooops - Rita is the dam of both Encore and Atcha, and we would not ordinarily breed half-siblings.  Must have been double-oops day, as we also got the date wrong!  The kids look great, but will be sold as pets.

Kidded on 3/22 with
  • 1 doeling, DECEASED
  • 1 buckling, Ferris, K8,  SOLD -- thank you, Julie!
  • 1 buckling, Name TBD, K9, SOLD -- thank you, Penny!​
Took a Leap Dahlov Ipcar
Took a Leap Fionbharr

Glad to have Dahlov, a Tasha daughter, back on the stand this year...she was following in her dam's hoofprints in her first freshening, and we missed her heat last year.

Kidded on 4/16/18 with a single buckling, SOLD as a wether -- thank you, Sherri!
NC PromisedLand RC Scandal
Sugar Moon V Waldo Pepper
4/13/18
ARGH, did not settle.
Sugar Moon V Fiala
Took a Leap Right Back Atcha
4/14/18
Fiala is the resident "brat" -- but we keep her around because she's an amazing milker.  This girl has a lovely udder with the biggest, fattest teats in our herd.  She's the dam of Took a Leap Fionbharr, our 2016 retained buckling, who has produced some absolutely lovely kids, and we're overjoyed to have two doelings out of this year's breeding to Atcha.

  • Cream with moonspots, RETAINED
