Dairy Goats
Echolight proudly breeds quality ADGA American Alpine dairy goats.
We hold memberships with the American Dairy Goat Association, Alpines International Club, and participate in DHIR Milk Test and Linear Appraisal.
Our breeding program goals include striving for strong, healthy does with natural parasite resistance who just MILK. Our milking schedule is rather fluid (i.e., irregular milking times from day to day) for most of the year so we can accommodate other activities, and we try not to coddle our animals. We give them the best we can of everything they need, and the rest is up to them!
We are aiming for does that can easily perform well on extended lactations, with steady volume (not extremes), and above average components. Our animals tend to be moderately sized and slow to mature (we don't push for unnaturally rapid growth). We also value strong correctly angulated front end assemblies, deep barrels, correct legs that don't turn in or out, pretty heads, and dairy character with very high, wide rear udder arches. Temperament, though often overlooked in livestock, is also important to us and we prefer easygoing, low-stress animals that are far more interested in eating than getting into trouble or picking fights. All of the animals here have combinations of most of these traits. We are also working on quality POLLED (naturally hornless) genetics here.
Our kids are bottle-raised on CAE Prevention, we minimally vaccinate, and use herbs and natural remedies wherever we can to promote good health. We are not afraid to use conventional medicine as needed, if we must, but consider it a last resort. We take a preventative approach in how we handle, care for, and feed our herd. We try to be as honest and open as possible - with ourselves, and with others - about the flaws and virtues each of our animals possess.
Whole herd CAE and JOHNES NEGATIVE
Our goats are free of CL abscesses and Soremouth.

"Josie"
SG Abundant Acres Max Melba 1*M
4-11 VEVV 89 (E in Head and Rear Legs)
Pedigree
Cou Blanc
2013 Grade Alpine (75%)
Josie is our highest producing doe despite being short for an Alpine, with multiple lactations averaging well over 3000lbs. She's shown persistence in late lactation as well! She has that deep, deep dairy wedge shape we adore and is very open ribbed with an elegant neck and head. Josie also has an incredible, dreamy rear udder (44 rear udder height, 49 rear udder arch, 37 medial attachment, 24 teat placement for 2018 LA), pancake flat rump from thurl to thurl, pretty legs that don't turn in or out, and a super sweet easygoing personality to top it off.
Josie's daughters are American; her sons are Grades.

Pedigree
Broken Sundgau
2013 American Alpine
Casein: E/F
Gabby is the herd queen! She is a powerfully built doe, deep-bodied and wide with beautiful front legs that don't turn out, a stunning front end assembly that is hard to find in Alpines today, flat rump thurl to thurl, strong pretty head and lovely topline. We love her near-extreme rear udder height! She does only have half of a functioning udder due to scar tissue; despite this handicap and some struggles with subclinical mastitis in 2016 and 2017, she has produced admirably on milk test. We almost lost Gabby to a rough kidding with quads in 2017, but she went on to deliver healthy triplets the following year and continues to amaze us with her tough constitution - we're starting to think she's indestructible!

"Hosanna"
Echolight Pen Unmentionable 2*M
1-02 VVV+ 85 (E in Front Legs and Back)
Pedigree
Cou Blanc
2017 American Alpine
One of two surviving kids out of the traumatic delivery of our first set of quads, Hosanna is special and her general appearance and style are lovely. She has a well-set smoothly blended front end assembly, straight front legs, wide level rump, pretty topline, loads of dairy strength, and gorgeous bone. We even like her feet! Her photos don't do her justice; she's a doe you really have to see in person to appreciate. Hosanna is also the gentlest, sweetest, calmest doe we've ever had - a real lady. Her mammary was still building as a recently-fresh yearling at 2018 LA and the appraiser remarked as much, but with two more freshenings under her belt it has fulfilled all its promises!
We retained one of Hosanna's polled 2019 sons, Indy, to linebreed on EX Gabby and carry forward the strength of this dam line.

Mooshie is long and wide through the barrel with clean flat bone, gorgeous rump and rear legs, and a lovely topline. Her combination of strength and dairy character paired with her fabulous body capacity, pretty head, and flash turn many heads. She is the epitome of balance and difficult to really fault.

Twinkle is one of only a few Clipper daughters - her dam is notorious for throwing bucks. We are lucky enough to have one of those pretty girls, and Twinkle is living up to her pedigree and then some. She has an excellent topline, rump, and legs, as well as a smooth front end and sweet personality. She freshened with an especially lovely mammary system is peaking at over 7lbs/day.

Junior Does
AT LONG LAST! Josie graced us with 3 flashy daughters to kick off our 2020 kidding season, and we ultimately retained 2 of them (the 3rd went to live with a friend nearby). These girls are extra special to us - this cross was nicely linebred on Josie herself, and we retained their sire Affie specifically for the purpose of making these pretty girls. We anticipate exceptional mammaries, solid production, and the classic, deep body style that we adore in Josie. These little girls will likely be slow to mature, just like their mama, but we are happy to be patient!

We had a specific request for Amber for 2020 - give us a brown, polled doe to keep (we're not color fiends, but even we like to mix it up occasionally!) - and that was exactly what she gave us!
Kiki has a pretty, sculpted feminine head and cute body with a wide rump and correct legs. This pedigree is a neat cross of our Gabby and Josie dam lines, and we're excited to watch Indy's first daughter mature and produce in the years to come. Amber has thrown some really pretty daughters in the past; it's about time we kept one for ourselves!

We were hoping to add another Onyx daughter this year, and here she is! Gorgeous head, bone and width with a pretty topline - she's a keeper! We're very impressed with Twinkle, one of our other Onyx daughters who shares a similar maternal pedigree with Mooshie, so we expect more of the same strong general appearance as well as a great mammary system and productivity in Tzeitel.

Chaka wasn't a planned addition as we're already freshening a rather large group of yearlings in 2021, but her pedigree is related to our herd in more ways than we can count, being sired by an Echolight buck as well as linebred on Mooshie's sire Chill and maternal granddam Lassi. Chaka's levelness and length of body is eye-catching, as is her dam's correct well-attached mammary system.
Thanks Summer Solstice Farm!

Little Nix's Shiny Onyx *B
Pedigree
Sundgau
2018 American Alpine
Casein: E/O1
We LOVE "pretty" bucks, and this guy is no exception! Onyx is wide and strong, with a handsome head and extremely correct frame. He tracks perfectly straight in front on the move. He is an easygoing, friendly guy, too! So far he seems to be throwing great toplines, correct front legs, wide rumps, dairy character and the shapely yet strong Nix heads. We've retained two of his 2019 daughters and are very excited to see them freshen in 2020.
Onyx's maternal granddam was a top 10 doe in 2014 and followed that year with another 5000lb lactation. His dam, Dandi, was just shy of 4000lbs for her second lactation as well!! Sadly, Dandi passed away due to kidding complications in 2018, so we are honored to have one of her last sons working in our herd. Onyx is taking very much after his dam in style, so her legacy will live on. His littermate sister freshened at just over a year old and is milking up to 15lbs per day!!! We were pleasantly surprised at Onyx's O1 carrier status for casein, as we have been toying with the idea of breeding for allergy-friendly, casein-free milk (the O1 gene is a seemingly uncommon, non-functioning variant and is associated with a lack of casein production).
Thanks to Little Nix's Alpines for sending us Onyx!

He has power and strength of bone, along with plenty of width from his chest floor, through his back and right down to his lovely rump. Not only is he polled, he also sports heterochromia (two different colored eyes) - one gold eye, one deep brown eye with a gold streak; extremely unusual and something we have never seen in goats before.
We plan to use Indy to tie back into Gabby's line, add a little more width and power to his get, as well as to produce more polled kiddos! So far, his offspring are powerful but still dairy with lovely front legs, correct front end assemblies, and wide rumps.
