Our
Herd Sires...

   
It can be said that the strength or weakness of a farm’s herd is a direct result of the quality of its herd sires.  The foundation of Cattail Meadows' breeding program is now based upon 4 outstanding proven bucks, and a young new herd sire... all with very impressive lineages. Our goal is to carefully select each buck and doe breeding pair with the intent of bringing out the very best qualities in our spring kids.  Bloodlines, fleece types, color and conformation are all carefully considered before our breeding pairs are matched up. Each of our bucks is registered through either the Pygora Breeder’s Association (PBA) or the PCA Registry (PCA).  Pass your cursor over each picture for registration number and stats.

Cattail Meadows Farm Tristan (PBA)

Tristan is our homegrown treasure! Although just a yearling, his well-conformed physique is nicely square and strongly muscled.  His stunning fiber is equally admirable…extremely dense with amazing soft brown ringlets that uniformly cover his entire body. At the age of 5 months, Tristan won 1st place Junior Pygora Buck at the 2008 Oregon Flock & Fiber Festival and it's been fun watching him mature since then. We're very eager to see the outstanding offspring he produces in the years to come.

McTimmonds Valley Farm Sabastian (PBA)

We are very fortunate to have Sabastian as one of our outstanding herd sires. He is a very solidly built Pygora buck, with good conformation and extremely dense locks of carmel-colored fiber. His ancestry traces back to the equally outstanding bucks, Verdant Vistas Guinness, and his son Verdant Vistas Mulligan. Sabastian often sires beautiful caramel-colored offspring, and he's very much a favorite of visitors to our farm with his even, gentle mannerisms and temperament.

Cattail Meadows Farm Alec (PBA)

Alec is the son of outstanding PBA buck Verdant Vistas Aiden, who won several championship awards for his outstanding, super-soft, very dense caramel-colored fleece. Born in the spring of 2008, Alec has matured into a handsome, well-conformed image of his pop…with his dad’s notoriously fine, dense fleece and uniquely adorable goatee and forelock. Alec’s mom, Hawks Mountain Ranch Noelle, is very boxy in stature, no doubt contributing to Alec’s nicely square physique, as well. With all of his positive attributes, Alec has moved into the position of Cattail Meadows' herd sire, and we’re very excited to see his future kids. 

Verdant Vistas Ian (PBA)

Verdant Vistas Ian won Reserve Champion Junior Buck at the 2006 Bold & Beautiful Buck Show in Albany, Oregon. He has outstanding conformation and very dense fiber with even coverage and good separation.  To date, he has sired a very colorful array of offspring including browns, greys, blacks and dark caramels. With all that and a sweet, friendly disposition, he is a very strong asset to our herd.

Bryn Hollow Farm’s Flannery (PCA)

Flannery is unique to Cattail Meadows in that he is a registered PCA buck. As the son of twice Grand Champion PBA buck Goose Creek Farm Jackson, his lineage is outstanding. He has superior conformation and is evenly covered with extremely dense and lustrous ringlets of red-colored fiber! His mild, friendly disposition together with his stunning good looks combine to make him an outstanding mate for our does. We look forward to branching out into the world of PCA goats!
