Ober-Boerd
Ober-Boerd started in 1999 when my sister Kelsey and I
started in 4-H with one Nubian wether each. The next
year we added four Boer does (which have since left),
and then in the fall of 2001 we added our first three
Oberhasli.
Our herd is mainly based on the FDF-Pleasant-Fields
animals that we started with. We have also added a
"dash" of Tonka-Tails, Udderly-Crazy, and Heaven's
Hollow to spice things up. We practice strict culling to
keep our numbers manageable and to keep the quality
at a competitive level. The main goal of our herd is to
produce an animal that is competitive in the show ring,
and on the milk stand. We breed for animals who are
functional into the later years of their lives, and who
look best when they are mature, rather than animals
who look great as "adolescents" and fizzle when they
should be at their peak. We show our animals between
10-15 rings every year, and when possible at the ADGA
National Show. We also participate in Linear Appraisal
and DHIR as a means of evaluating our herd, and to use
as breeding tools.
Please take some time to view the online farm and view
each of our animals in more detail. Our website is
constantly being updated and changed, so I apologize
for any errors or problems with the site.
So, grab a cup of coffee (or your favorite drink), sit
back, relax, and enjoy our online farm!
