The goats in Higgs pedigree truly need no introduction. Higgs brings solid, proven, and consistent genetics to the table. Each buck in his immediate pedigree has earned two pluses meaning that they have sired 3 daughters out of three different dams who earned their milk star (worth one +), AND two sons that have earned their + for their progeny. We are talking generations of milk on top of more milk!
Higgs' dam Zenith (arguably one of the most well known Nigerian Dwarf does) was a very correct doe who received an EEVE 90 on LA as an 8 year old! She scored no less than a V in any structural trait with E's in back, general appearance, dairy strength, and mammary. Zenith's Mammary was outstanding through to her old age with a high and wide udder featuring a strong MSL. Her capacity lended itself well to an incredible side udder view with thirds of her udder correctly placed in front and behind her rear leg. Zenith was an uphill doe with a long elegant neck that blended smoothly into a strong front end assembly and prominent brisket. She was long and dairy with a level topline and beautiful wide/flat rump. Zenith had many offspring that have done incredible things in many herds including CH Algedi Farm D Capella (VEEE 90), GCH Algedi Farm RK Stella Luna 4*M (VEVE 90), SGCH Algedi Farm H Purple Rain (VEEV 90), but perhaps most notably ++*B GCH Algedi Farm Drops of Jupiter. Jupiter is not only Zenith's son, but Higg's Sire; the two were bred in a very tight line breeding and as a result Higgs is heavily line-bred on Zenith (12.5%).
Algedi Farm Drops of Jupiter is a once in a lifetime buck, we are pretty sure he has his own little fan base-and rightfully so! Jupiter sired the 1st place Senior Get of Sire at the 2015 Nationals in Oregon, and was named 2015 Premiere Sire at the same show! He has multiple champion daughters on the ground and is known for passing on consistently outstanding conformation and milk genetics.
We expect Higgs to have a heavy impact on the Hidden Hills herd as our foundation herd sire over the next several years.
