Status is Hoanbu
Dairy Goats’ Senior Herdsire and we couldn't be
more pleased. Status excels at everything we have asked of him. Along with
a stellar pedigree, Status earned his permanent championship in 2006 by going
undefeated and was shown 6 times in 2007 and was 6xBest-Of-Breed and 4xBest Buck-In-Show, appraised Excellent since he was a
two year-old, has already earned his Star
and Advanced Registry for his daughters' production, has daughters who have been
competitive on a National scale, has sired two permanent champion daughters to
date, and sired the highest seller at the 2006 Ohio Dairy Goat Association's
Buckeye Sale who sold for $1,550.00.
Status' progeny
have been so consistent; being extremely tall, powerful, deep and wide
throughout, possessing short pasterns, correct feet with near ideal depth of
heel, with plenty of width between the hocks and openness in the escutcheon.
Status mammaries show improvement in security
of attachments, height and width to rear udder, and he consistently corrects
teat size, shape and delineation. Status’ current 2007 daughters’ average final
Linear Appraisal score is 85.8 with his
oldest daughters being just three year-olds. Status’ daughters
were 2nd place Junior Kid, 4th place Intermediate Kid, 10th place Intermediate
Kid, and 4th place Senior Kid at the 2006 ADGA National Show. Status’ daughter, GCH Hoanbu Status Onyx O-Joy
