Our Does

Milking Does

Bella loves attention and isn’t shy with visitors. She is chocolate doe with a more refined body style and a gorgeous udder – scoring E for mammary – no surprise as she is from the same line as the Better Wayz Carabear line mixed with the Sugar Moon production genetics. Bella has earned her star in all 3 categories (Total Volume, Butterfat, and Protein). She’s an easy keeper who kids so easily – triplets in 2022 and 2023 and quads in 2024, triplets again in 2025. We have retained multiple daughters: Rockville Ridge BellaRose (2022), and Rockville Ridge Isabella (2023), Rockville Ridge Bella’s Beauty (2024), Rockville Ridge Bella Luna (2025) and her kids never disappoint!

Dam

Sire

Dam: Better Wayz Belladonna 2*M
Dam’s Dam: SG Ruckus Ridge Carabelle 1*M VEEE90
Dam’s Sire: Gillispie’s Black Bear +*B

Belladonna is full sister to Better Wayz Carabear, who is the star doe in that herd – dam to 5 Elite does, appraised as EEEE92, Superior Genetics, and Elite status, and top 10 for butterfat! Not every goat is like Carabear, but the genetics are there on Bella’s Dam side!

Sire: Amethyst Acres G Zebulen +*B (Elite)
Sire’s Dam: Sugar Moon Z Zip Me Up 5*M (Elite)
Sire’s Sire: Amethyst Acres R Gianni *B

Zebulen’s dam Sugar Moon Z Zip Me Up and holds the record highest total milk production for the breed! The Amethyst Acres / Sugar Moon side of this pedigree puts milk in the pail and contributes beautiful udders.

Zee is a shy but beautiful chocolate buckskin and a high producing doe. Zee has the addition of the Sugar Moon genetics from her sire, where the breed production record is held. Zee has reached the 93rd percentile in production for the breed and easily earned her milk star in all 3 categories. I love front leg placement and tight shoulders. She is super wide and kids easily every year. Zee had triplets in 2022, twins in 2023 and 2024, triplets in 2025. She has been a primary dam line here and every one of her retained daughters easily earned their milk stars as a FF. Daughters we have retained included Rockville Ridge SpiceZee (hit 5.5# on her 3F milk test), GraceZee, BetZee, and GlitZee Girl. In 2025, Zee milked a half gallon a day 4 months straight. She has a very consistent lactation curve, which I love. Unfortunately, Zee tore her MCL at the end of 2024 and it cannot be repaired. She is doing great, but I don’t think she’ll be bred again to avoid too much strain on that leg – so her daughters that are still here will carry on her line (GraceZee & GlitZee Girl).

Izzy is our Togg look-alike – chocolate swiss with moonspots. She is very long haired which can hide her beautiful build. Izzy was our only FF in 2024 and she did not disappoint. She’s out of Better Wayz Bella, who is not my highest production dam line, but Izzy has been a standout performer for milk production. She has such beautiful dairy skin and milks down to nothing. Izzy is maturing beautifully and is exactly what I love seeing in my barn everyday. We retained a daughter Elizabeth in 2025.

Sire: Better Wayz Genesis *B

Sire’s Sire: SG Old Mountain Farm Elton Jay ++*B (Elite)

I absolutely love GraceZee. She is maturing into one of the best built does Zee has produced! GraceZee is very wide and level thurl to thurl. I love her legs and she has a nice front end and depth even as a yearling. Every Zee daughter has had solid production, but GraceZee hit the ground as a FF in 2025 milking over 4# a day. Her udder capacity and foreudder is exactly what I want. Teat placement could be improved, but she has earned her spot for a 2nd freshening for sure.

Sire’s Sire: SG Old Mountain Farm Elton Jay ++*B (Elite)

Beauty was one of two Epic daughters we kept to freshen in 2025! She is from Bella’s line, which is a little slower maturing, but she has all the right parts. Beauty is a long bodied, refined doe with a nice leg set and very promising FF udder. I am loving both her teat placement and size, and her production is superb – she is so easy to milk! I have retained her daughter “Belle Fleur”.

Sheba is our newest addition from Better Wayz. Our first polled doe, she has dams on both sides with LA scores in the 90’s and is just so well put together! Her sire, Swiss Mister, is out of SG Better Wayz SwissMiss Carabear 3*M VEEE92, Elite & Top Ten! Swiss Mister’s sire is Better Wayz Is A Hunk *B, who is out of SG Better Wayz Isabelle 3*M EEEE92, also Elite & Top Ten!

2025 Keeper Pen

Bella Luna is an exciting little roaned keeper doeling out of our Better Wayz Bella x Better Wayz Samurai (son of SG Better Wayz Isabelle EEEE92, also Elite & Top Ten!) Bella has a gorgeous buttery soft udder and Luna’s teat placement already looks promising! Super excited to see her freshen in 2026. She will be bred to Maestro this season.
