Pygora Does

Permanent Grand Champion Fleece Hawks Mountain Ranch GeGe

GeGe won Overall Grand Champion Fleece At Michigan Fiber Festival 2019, Overall Grand Champion Fleece at MFF 2020, Overall Grand Champion Fleece SAFF 2020, and Overall Grand Champion Pygora at the Porter County Fair in 2017 and 2019

GeGe is my daughter's doe who has outstanding type B fleece with amazing separation. I enjoy hand-dehairing her fleece due to the ease of separation of the guard hairs and only needing one or two passes with my louet double row mini combs.

GeGe was named by my kids in honor of their great-grandmother Lorraine who they lovingly call GeGe. They said "mom, we should call her GeGe because she has the same beautiful grey color hair as GeGe does," And so, her name became GeGe. Granted, my grandma didn't know what to think of a goat being named after her!

GeGe will be bred back to PGCH-F Abraham for a 2020 kid.

GeGe's registration number is 16-102F; Sire: Hawks Mountain Ranch Hot Dog, Dam: Hawks Mountain Ranch Quartz, Type B, Grey Fleece

In Loving Memory: Labor of Love Pygoras Black Pearl

Black Pearl won Reserve Grand Champion Doe Fleece at Washington County Sanctioned Pygora show 2019, and Grand Champion Overall Pygora at the Porter County Fair 2018

Black Pearl is my pride and joy doe who has everything I want to see in a maturing pygora doeling. She has a wide and square body, full fleece coverage, beautiful luster, great separation, density, and that "presence" in the ring that makes you unable to take your eyes off of her.

Sadly, Black Pearl passed away 24 hours after a C-Section in April 2019. She cared for, loved her two bucklings, and provided the colostrum needed for them to survive. She will live on through them and will never be forgotten.

Her registration number is 17-66F; Sire: PGC Hawks Mountain Ranch Abraham, Dam: Labor of Love Pygoras Princess Buttercup, Type A, Grey Fleece

The Oaks Sandhya

(Sandhya on the right with her doeling Eve on the left). Her registration number is 16-19F; Sire: Cricketview Ranch Leonardo the Red, Dam: The Oaks Martinique, Type B fleece, Grey Fleece

Sandhya is my son's doe who has a nice square body, excellent spring of rib, and fantastic type B fleece. Sandhya's fleece has gorgeous lock structure, an airy soft handle, and amazing separation of guard hair. I adore hand-dehairing her fleece due to how easy it is to separate and how soft it is to the touch.

Sandhya’s kids from the past two years have gone on to be show stoppers! Her 2018 daughter, Labor of Love Pygoras Sapphire, was the Overall Reserve Grand Champion Doe in the second show at Michigan Fiber Festival 2019. Her 2019 daughter, Labor of Love Pygoras Eve, was the Reserve Grand Champion Junior Doe in the first show at Michigan Fiber Festival 2019.

Sandhya will be bred back to PGCH- Fleece Abraham for 2020 kids.

Sandhya's fleece won Reserve Overall Grand Champion Fleece and Best in Show Fleece at the 2018 Michigan Fiber Festival sanctioned Pygora Fleece show.

Permanent Grand Champion Gun Plain Pygoras Emma

We are so excited to announce that Emma became a Permanent Grand Champion in 2019!

She truly is an amazing representation of the breed and we are blessed to have obtained her last year while at Michigan Fiber Festival. I instantly fell in love with her and asked to buy her although she wasn’t for sale. I will forever be grateful for Nan Nichols who bred Emma and entrusted her to our care. It was a joy to show her and I’m so happy she won at Michigan Fiber Festival 2019 in the 2nd show of the night where Nan could be there to watch.

Emma will be bred this year to Permenent Grand Champion Great Lakes Pygora Eewan “Lincoln” for 2020 kids.
