3 Kids Farm Whiskey Lullaby
Born 4/4/18
Light Tan Chamoisee with White Spot on Back and Blue Eyes
Lullaby is developing into a lovely doe. She is the daughter of Willow and our buck Whiskey. We think all she needs is a little time, she should continue to improve. Her first freshner LA score was VV+V 85. We plan on keeping this one around for a while and see what she can do!

3 Kids Farm VW Helga
Born 3/23/19
Cream and White with Blue Eyes
This is one of our favorite maternal lines in our herd. Helga is very angular and has great depth and open ribbed, with a lovely well attached udder. We feel she is very solid herd building material. Her 2022 linear appraisal score was VEEE 89 We have retained a couple daughters out of her as well. We love our Helga!

Chanda is the first daughter we have freshened out of Isidore. We are very pleased with the sneak peak we are getting of his daughters. We love what we are seeing of her mammary as a first freshner. We look forward to seeing her mature

3 Kids Farm I Esme
Born 2/14/22
Black with Chocolate Brown & Tan Moonspots
Esme was was born on Valentine's day, and she was one of my favorite lil valentines for sure! She is a daughter of an elite doe, Springwater DC Raspberry Pie, and Onaqui BH Isidore, so some heavy hitters on both sides genetically. We are loving what we are seeing so far in this cute girl!

3 Kids Farm 4&20 Blackbird Pie
Born 2/9/20
Black
Blackbird is a daughter of Raspberry Pie and Sired by Springwater Virigina Whiskey. This lil gal came to the party to milk, and she's doing a fine job of it. She is pictured below in lower pictures as a FF in her working clothes, not a show clip, not uddered up....but let me assure you she is pretty lil gal and has definitely earned the right to stay here. We believe she will get better as she ages.....watch this one. ;)

3 Kids Farm B Pie A La Mode
Born 4/2/21
White with Black Markings
This girl lives up to her name....because she's definitely the ice cream on top! She is more on the petite side, though we suspect she will continue to grow for a while as she is a yearling first freshner. She does have the genetics to milk and is doing just that! Her 2022 linear appraisal score was +VEV 86. This little gal is earning her keep, we will be watching what she does in upcoming years.

3 Kids Farm B Blueberry Buckle
Born 6/24/20
Black with Tan and White Moonspots
Ok, I'm not gonna lie.....I originally retained this doe because she "sparkled". But I sure don't regret it! We are pretty tickled with what she is developing into these days. We have posted pictures from this lactation and her last lactation as a first freshener. She freshened the first time with just a single doeling, but she milked very well considering that fact! We are so glad we held onto this girl, this year with kidding with triplets she has become just a stunning milk producing machine! We love our Buckle!! We think she is going to do nothing but improve. He linear appraisal score as a FF was ++VV 86. Hoping to see that go up as well this year, but either way...she is a keeper!

Wild In Wild H Luna Lovegood
Born 3/13/17
Light Buckskin with White, Frosted Ears and Nose
Luna is an addition to our herd that we are soooo excited about! As you can see she is a gorgeous gal, with a perfect balance of dairyness and strength. She has been appraised at VEEE 90. And as if that was not enough, she's a great producer to boot...has averaged 3.5-4 lbs per day on her most recent lactation. We are very thankful to Twin Arrows Farm for allowing us to add her to our herd. Photos of this beautiful doe are courtesy of Twin Arrows Farm
3 Kids Farm B Hilda
Born 4/27/21
Black with white marking and blue eyes
Hilda is really a beautiful doe, much prettier than these pictures reflect. She was not "in the mood" on picture day so not all that cooperative. But trust us.....she is absolutely becoming a favorite here. She was appraised last year, but was fresh only a week at the time of linear appraisal and scored GVV+ 81. I suspect that score will go up on future lactations as she is given some time to mature. She is the daughter of a favorite here, Helga. We are going to hold onto this one. She has some nice genetics, she just needs a little time to live up to them.

Frehja comes from one of our favorite dam lines in our herd. Her dam is 3 Kids Farm VW Helga. Her linear appraisal score this year as a FF was VVE+ 85, and she has been a great little producer for us as well. We are very happy with this and think she is solid herd building material. This pretty girl is gonna stick around a bit ;)

Onaqui BH Roe Quinn
Born 2/12/2020
Dark Buckskin
Quinn was a fun addition to our herd. We were fortunate enough to even add her as a bred doe, carrying kids from Old Mountain Farm Magik Trick. We are happy to say she delivered beautiful triplets that we are watching grow. So far they are looking stellar. Quinn fell right into the groove here and found her place in the herd quite easily. She was dam raised, so to begin with not thrilled about being handled, but she knows her job has been milking well for us. She is even beginning to come around to some human attention and I think kinda liking it. Anyway, she is a beautiful doe and we look forward to having her in our herd for many years to come. We are thankful to Onaqui Nigerians for letting her join us.
She also did very well at appraisal here in 2023 scoring GEEE89

Onaqui G Blushing Lady
Born 2/18/21
Light Buckskin
This sweet doe was a new addition to our herd this year also. She came to us with 2 buck kids at side. She raised her kids and after weaning we brought her into the milk stand. She did quite respectable for a smaller, young doe. We felt she is one who may just outproduce herself with her progeny....her bucklings were definitely a couple of lookers. Both are going to be used in herds as bucks. "Blush" has quite the genetics behind her. She is sired by Amethyst Acres Z Giulianni, who is out of the beautiful SG Sugar Moon RB Gianna. Blush was appraised here this fall, her 2023 score was GAGG81. We are happy with this little lady and think her best years are ahead of her.

3 Kids Farm MCD Hildie
Born 4/9/22
Light Gold with White Markings
We have high hopes for this sweet girl. Her dam is our Helga with whom we are more than a lil smitten. She is a bit on the petite size, but good things can come in little packages. With her genetics she has some great possibilities. She had a single doeling for us this year and is a first freshener, production is not bad given those 2 things. I think she could be one to watch on future lactations.

3 Kids Farm MG Wild Irish Rose
Born 6/10/21
Chocolate Brown with White Markings and Frosted ears
This cutie is out of and Wee3Farms EP Hyacinth and Onaqui DH Mr. Grinch. She is as cute as she can be and has some great genetics for milk and type. She freshened with a single kid and is a first fresher, so is another one we will give a bit of grace and see how she develops in a future lactation.
