Longvu LaManchas: Bucks page
We have had some wonderful
bucks in the past, but I believe this is the best mix of bucks and
genetic traits we have ever assembled. I cannot express how great
these bucks are to work with not only with the expected genetics they
pass on but also the pleasing and easy going personalities they
exhibit. I spend much time researching pedigrees, appraisal
scores, milk records, and looking through oodles of web pages looking
for the animals that will bring in the traits we need and having the
right connections in pedigrees to blend well with our present lines.

"Omie" is such a lovely boy. He is long and angular with a
long flat rump ang long bone pattern. His kids all have had very
high rear escutcheons
and good balanced general appearance. They exhibit Omie's
sharpness, length of body and rump, and good length of bone.
Especially important, his daughters freshened with very good
improvements in mammary
system. The udders we have seen all showed large area of
attachment, tighter rear attachments, and increased productivity over
their dams. He presently has two permanent champion daughters:
Vipassana Meditiation and Yellow Brick Road (owned by Rick & Diane
Kelley), and as a dry yearling, Margarita Visions was Best in
Show.

I had long admired the pictures of Java and had heard many good things
about her. She has so many good qualities, and is particularly
strong in areas that we seek improvement. So, when Pete Snyder
let it be known that a buck was available, I did very quick research on
his sire and then committed. He brings in some of the
strong genetics from Lucky*Star and Elm-Glen. Specifically, "Timmy" has added greater width and
flatness of rump, longer bone patterns, and just a beautiful rear leg
stance with width and height in the escutcheon.
Timmy's daughters have demonstrated their correctness with some great
acheivements: Kiwi Mango iFruity earned her permanent champion
status as a second freshening two-year old, Magic Woman was the 1st
place Jr yearling at the 2010 ADGA National Show in Louisville, Moon
Mist BX Sansa Dance won her dry leg and was Best in Show at the
Farmington Fair show in Maine.

Maverick is an absolutely
beautiful buck. His correctness in form is accented by his
excellent feet and rear leg set; wide, flat rump; and sharpness of
withers and front end. His pedigree brings in several of the
lines that we have bred on, along with some other very impressive
genetics. Mav's offspring are all showing a longer bone pattern,
wider rumps, high and wide escutcheons, tighter front ends, and
improved legs and feet. His kids have all turned heads at the
shows we have attended.
Of his daughters from this past spring, Dell Phinium and Eden both have
dry legs and Eden was also Best in Show at the Sandwich Fair this past
fall.
