Percentage Kiko Twins Born June 20, 2026
Dizzy is an ever-increasing-in-size percentage Kiko doe (50% Kiko, 37.5% Boer, and 12.5% Toggenburg) who weighed in at 180 lbs at kidding. Her open weight was 140 lbs, and she looks even more pregnant post-kidding! We were out of town when, as a first freshener, she kidded these gorgeous twins from SMRL Bomb Cyclone. No problem - she had them tucked into a sheltered area in the roots of fir trees, and in the textbook Kiko fashion, excellently tended to her business all on her own. We found her next day completely unperturbed with her new charges. With her outstanding mothering skills, she is growing her kids well on her ample udder with seemingly no impact to her body condition. The twin doeling and buckling are 75% Kiko, 18.75% Boer, and 6.25% Toggenberg.

100% New Zealand Twins Born June 8, 2026
Delight somehow slipped into the breeding pen with KCR Cold Iron at age 10 months we didn't even notice it. We want our FF to reach the age of 18 months before breeding for optimal milk production, kid growth, and recovery of the doe. Even though Delight kidded these good-sized twins unassisted, we have elected to bottle supplement the doelings for everyone's benefit. Cheerie and Jubilee both inherited their dam's bunny ears and have taken on their sire's blue coloring, especially Jubilee. We are considering retaining Jubilee.

Purebred Kiko Twins Born May 28, 2026
Leap of Faith is a smaller, compact, easy-keeper doe and these bucklings were on the smaller side as well. Faith kidded unassisted and had her bucklings very dry and warm when we found them in the early morning. She is performing well as a first freshener and giving them a great start with healthy gains. This is KCR Kopf Canyon Cold Iron's second doe to kid this season, and so far he is throwing kids with similar color profiles. Gideon has blue and rust undertones similar to his sire.

Hopscotch is a percentage Kiko doe at 50% Kiko, 37.5% Boer, and 12.5% Toggenburg. She kidded these twins easily in the field a couple days early but she had no problem drying them off and efficiently getting them on her udder. Their initial gains have ranged between 0.4 and 0.6 lbs/day. With Cold Iron as their sire, the twins are 75% Kiko, 18.75% Boer, and 6.25% Toggenberg.

IAD Caycee is a favorite doe at the ranch. She is an easy keeper and an excellent mother. Genetic testing will need to confirm the sire of these beautiful doelings since Caycee kidded near the gestation transition of when we switched LCLL Alloy Brass and KCR Kopf Canyon Cold Iron in the breeding pen. We are thrilled with these little doelings and will retain both this year for performance observation as we continue to refine the development of the 100% New Zealand Kiko portion of our herd.

Purebred Kiko Triplets Born Apr. 16, 2026
Panna doesn't do anything by halves. When she wants to get out, she works on a gate to try to figure out the mechanics of a latch. When she wants the best food, she plants her 150 to 190 lb self in our way. When she doesn't want to go, she lays on her side, becomes dead weight, and raises an eyebrow at us. She is the difficult and precocious doe we keep around because her body condition and mothering skills are too fantastic to send packing. I watched (hands off) her kid two of her three kids. She definitely wins the tongue Olympics for drying kids the most efficiently and fervently. She worked on her triplets all day, incessantly licking them and patiently waiting while they fumbled with her ample udder. No, Panna won't be making the sale list this year either...even though we think about it sometimes when she opens the gate and lets the goats out!

Purebred Kiko Doeling Born Apr 12, 2026
This was an unintended pairing when Parlay slipped into the breeding pen with LCLL Alloy Brass, who is now the sire and grandsire, at 6 months old. She kidded this singleton in the field at 11 months old. The Livestock Guardian Dog, Pearl, and Parlay had the doeling dried off and doing well despite the wet, chilly day, combined with an overly young first freshener dam. Despite being a doeling herself when she kidded, Parlay is providing enough milk for her doeling, Savvy, to produce 0.4 ADG gains. Savvy will be offered later in the season as an unregistered commercial doeling.

Although this is Hekla's 2nd freshening, it is only her first at our ranch. We were thrilled with how she handled kidding and her mothering skills. A textbook Kiko, she kidded twins within a half hour, dried them off efficiently, and had them nursing right away to get the good colostrum. All of this we watched while we were out of town over a barn cam installed nearby. Her beautiful kids are a delight to the eyes and a tickle to watch play.

KRC Karaoke was a favorite doe during her first kidding season with us last last year. If she had kidded doelings, one or more likely would have been retained this season. We retained all three of her triplets last year. Karaoke is a hardy, easy-care doe with excellent hooves and FAMACHA. She handles kidding and mothering easily, and is extremely protective of her progeny. This year we received all bucklings from Karaoke. They will be evaluated as buck prospects in the coming weeks.

Victory's first freshening produced healthy twins, a doeling and a buckling. In the footsteps of her dam, LCLL Surrender, Victory's ample milk supply is supporting her kids well. Victory easily kidded unassisted while we were away from home and she had them all dried off, ready to display upon our return.

Surrender had a massive 53 lb. gain during her pregnancy, weighing in at 206 lbs. right before kidding. This is her 3rd freshening and she did not disappoint with her 1st set of triplets which she kidded unassisted. She efficiently dried them off throughout kidding and got them up and nursing, demonstrating her excellent mothering instincts consistent with the Kiko breed.

Purebred Kiko Twins Born Feb. 4, 2026
Cornflower's ability to raise big, quality kids, was much anticipated this year. Unfortunately, her son, SMRL Bomb Cyclone, had a very short opportunity to breed her when a gate was left open, and he was quite successful. Cornflower kidded twin doelings unassisted, and has supported them well. These doelings will be available unregistered later this spring. They are spunky, cute little kids, that are thriving on their dam's generously-sized udder as our only set of twins so far this season.

We knew that Solara would be a fabulous dam based on her gentle "Auntie" disposition towards all of the doelings from 2025, however her first freshening of triplets was a beautiful example of just how hands-off Kiko's are. We came home to dried off and nursing, vibrant kids. All that was left for us to do was to weigh, tag and give them their BoSe shot...and of course provide human snuggles.
