Dr. and Ms. Burton's home is nestled in the foothills of the high sierra in northern California. Turtle Rock Estate is the birthplace and home of a quality herd of fullblood Boer Goats. The overseer and owner, a physician surgeon, manages the care and breeding of this herd with the same attention to detail that he expects in his medical practice. Kevin and Pat Tenborg, "Flying T Ranch", are from a cattle background having raised and bred Limousine and commercial cattle. The knowledge they have acquired over the last 21 years has been implemented to raise good commercial meat and fullblood Boer goats for the last five years. They have paid close attention to raise a good working kind of Boer Goat that you expect in today's market. We believe this combination gives the discriminating buyer a choice for their production or show stock. We were so fortunate to still have this suburb buck as our foundation sire. He was purchased in 1997 from Smith Boer Goats. Little Texan is a March 1997 buck, He is one of the last living sires by the great Kaptein. LITTLE TEXAN is sired by the immortal KAPTEIN who will inevitably go down as one of the USA premier sires. In his short lifetime he sired LEROY, CLOUD DANCING, and too many other great sires, and does of today to mention them all. LITTLE TEXAN is out of the embryo flush from the wonderful doe of Don Smiths, PATCHES. During his show courier Little Texan has taken home numerous Sr. Championships. . Little Texan posses the great qualities of his sire... he holds up his thick body with a long deep loin and full hip he has always had, he is correct in the mouth and straight up on his pasterns and legs, and he is incredibly masculine You can see in his offspring that he passes on these qualities! He also passes on the feminity that we are all looking for in the female lines. We also have a new buck named Hoppin he is 100% South African he is out of Chakatta bred by Jurgen Schultz and she won the Produce of dam class at the National IBGA show in 2000. His sire is the Enobled Eggsfile. Hoppin was shown once his yearling year under MD Shirley and it was pointed out that he has the "front-end that we all should be looking for in our herd sires". He also possesses a great long and deep hind-end and thick loin. The cross of Little Texan bred does and by Hoppin have proven out to be incredible. We can't wait to take them in the show pen this year. Our full blood does are from the great foundation sires including THE OLD MAN, HERCULES, DOE MAKER, THE BOY NAMED SUE, CLOUD DANCING, EGGSFILE, KAPTEIN, SASQUATCH, NBBG TSJAKA, TOPGUN NO. 2, PBL JR and proven LANDCORP SIRES. We also have some solid red does sired by BUSH. Our does are by some of the great female lines 349 Patches, The Doe Maker, Eggspensive, Chakatta, Sasuquatch, DSM Kala, Keri Downs, Earwell, Mofabi. We have chosen these lines as a base for our herd for their milkability, mothering ability, udder correctness, and structural correctness.
