"Onyx"
Prior mild mannered Ladies Man Onyx turned into a Wild Man once he joined the does in the breeding pen. LOL
Born: 03-09-2021
Sire: KASKI RANCH BD HIGHLAND STAG
Dam: CAMANNA RZ MIDNIGHT MOJITO
Onyx is one of our new additions and adds even more bloodlines, namely Old Mountain Farm, to our herd for the late 2022 and early 2023 breedings/kiddings we have planned. He's quite the blue-eyed, black coated "Ladies Man". I hope to obtain some sleek coated pictures of Onyx next summer.
Rio as a young buck.
He still has the long sleek neck and body. It just doesn't show in the angle of his lastest picture as a mature buck.
Born: 05-10-2021
Sire: T-HANGING-A COWBOY CAL
Dam: PHINNEY FARM BUTTERSCOTCH
"RIO" has a gold coat with moderate white markings. He has brown eyes and is heterozygous polled (naturally hornless). We're hoping to increase the number of naturally hornless goats in our herd. RIO also brings some new genetics, namely Castle Rock, Stage Dragon and Calico Creek to our herd. Rio is the Great Grandson of Stage Dragon SA Zenon who qualified for the Superior Genetics designation in 2015 with a Lineal Appraisal of 1*M 90 VEEE.

Where it All Began...
The purchase of these two does 4 years ago was the humble beginnings of Big White Pines Dairy Goats.
Sophie and Sienna have recently been sold to a local Idaho rancher and will be starting a new family on their own goat adventures!
We will continue to carry Sienna's excellent milking genetics (udder pictures below) in the does we have retained from her.
Thank you, girls, for 4 wonderful years!
"April"
APRIL FOOLED US
(born on April Fools Day 2019)
We acquired April as a young doeling before we actually settled on raising Purebred Nigerian Dwarf goats. She is 75% Nigerian Dwarf and 25% Boer. She's given us a single, twins, and quadruplets and has quickly become my favorite milker April has been bred to ONYX this Spring.. Her kids are due in July and will be 88% Nigerian Dwarf and 12% Boer, like those pictured above. We retained her doelings (the kids with the black boots) this past year!
"Ellie Spitfire"
(Click above to view Ellie's Pedigree)
Born: 2-23-2020
SIRE: BLUE CACTUS LADIES LOVE LUCKY
DAM: LILCOUNTRY KIDS ZU SNOWBALL (Elsa)
We purchased Ellie as a young doeling in the spring of 2020 from the Blue Cactus Dairy Goat Ranch. It was there, she acquired her name SPITFIRE! (For the evidence, start watching the linked video at min mark 28 for about 3-4 min, unless of course, you hate watching cute baby goats being silly). She is a beautiful light Buckskin/ Swiss marked combo with a Black cape, is Blue eyed and our first POLLED (naturally hornless) doe. We were so blessed she had 3 doelings her first kidding Spring 2021, two of which are polled and two of which have blue eyes. Her second kidding resulted in two blue eyed bucklings, one of which was polled.
Ellie has been bred to ONYX for anticipated July 2023 kids. (Secretly hoping for a black and white swiss marked, blue eyed, polled doeling!)
"Starlet"
(Click above to view Starlet's Pedigree)
Born: 11-11-19
Sire: ARCTIC LIGHT'S COPPER RVRBLUES
Dam: THE SWEET N SASSY SIENNA (3 different National Championship Winners in her bloodlines.)
Starlet, (see her distinctive diamond bracelet) is our Chocolate Chamoisee, disbudded, brown-eyed doe & was the first kid born on our Big White Pines Ranch. She kidded 2 bucklings Spring of 2021 with Chance.
This year the lucky buck was GOLD DUST RIO. Starlet delivered twins on July 3rd, 2022... just before midnight... A "FireCracker" of a Buckling and a flashy, polled Doeling named "Paisley". We are retaining both of them for now. Starlet has been bred to ONYX for an anticipated June 9th delivery.

Dam: THE SWEET N SASSY SIENNA (3 different National Championship Winners in her bloodlines.)
Shadow, our beautiful Red Buckskin , disbudded, with brown eyes, kidded a doeling and 3 bucklings Spring 2021. We were so impressed with Shadow's conformation and first freshner udder, we retained her doeling, BigWhitePines CH Hailey. Shadow was bred to Onyx and delivered 3 doelings on December 1st, 2022 See our FOR SALE page for pictures and information on these kids.
(Young Madi)
"Madi"

Chamoisee with White Poll & minimal white markings, Blue eyes. Disbudded
Born: 04-17-2020
Sire: Blue Cactus EV Chance of Reign
Dam: The Lams LBP Cadbury Girl
The lucky buck for Madi's first breeding was GOLD DUST RIO. Madi delivered twins on June 23, 2022. The polled buckling has been sold. and was named "Abraham" by his new owners. We've retained Madi's polled doeling and named her "Fancy Face".
She had a bit of a difficult delivery, but she recovered easily. She mothered her twins fine and was an excellent milker for us. She has been bred to ONYX this time for a June 2023 kidding.
"MilkyWay"
(Click above to view MilkyWay's Pedigree)
Owned and named by my 11 year old Granddaughter, Anna, who assisted with the delivery when MilkyWay was born.

(First Breeding)
"Inde"
Born on Independence Day 2020, INDE is a Mini Nubian we purchased that same Fall. She inherited her Sires erect Nigerian Dwarf ears so doesn't look like the typical Nubian. I doubt we take our herd in the direction of Mini Nubians in the future, but INDE may change our minds, as she should be a good milker for us the Fall of 2023. She will be bred to ONYX or RIO.
"Ember, Echo & Evie"
These three sisters (Ellie Spitfire's Doelings) were photographed together at about 8 months old.
We did not "pose" them. They would often line themselves up like this! :)
(You can read Ember's BIO above. She has graduated to Senior doe status)
(Click above to view Echo's pedigree)
Born: 05-10-2021
Sire: BLUE CACTUS EV CHANCE OF REIGN
Dam: BLUE CACTUS LL ELLIE SPITFIRE
Echo has blue eyes. Her horns were successfully disbudded. Her coat is a light buckskin with a black cape & frosted ears and nose. She's stunning!
Planning a 2023 breeding with Onyx.
(Click above to view Evie's pedigree)
Born: 05-10-2021
Sire: BLUE CACTUS EV CHANCE OF REIGN
Dam: BLUE CACTUS LL ELLIE SPITFIRE
Evie has brown eyes and is polled (naturally hornless). Her coat is a Chamoisee/Swiss Marked combo.
Evie was born very tiny, raised in our living room and fed her mother's milk by us, first via syringe and eventually by bottle. Evie is now strong and healthy, but still a bit smaller than her sisters. She is 2 years old now and we are going to pen her with our other does and Onyx during the 2023 breeding season. Saving this little life, {The name EVIE means "little life"} I'm quite attached to her.
(Young Mia)
"Mia"
(Click above to view Mia's Pedigree)
Born: 04-17-2020
Sire: Blue Cactus EV Chance of Reign
Dam: The Lams LBP Cadbury Girl
This beautiful doe reminded me of the Disney Character "Bambi" when she was born. Long legs, Chamoisee coat with frosted ears and nose, big brown eyes. Her horns were disbudded. Mia is nearly 3 years old and still remains open. We are considering a vet consultation. Should she not be suitable for breeding, she still makes a wonderful pet with her sweet personality.
(With older sister Madi)
"Oreo"
Click above to view Oreo's Pedigree
Born: 03-25-2021
Sire: Blue Cactus EV Chance of Reign
This beautiful doe has a history with us.. She was originally purchased from us as a young doeling in 2021, but since her owner recently passed away (Condolences to the family), the remaining spouse chose to return her back to our herd. (along with her full sister "Miss Molly" from Sienna's 2022 kidding... see her below). Oreo was always one of our favorites. She has a black coat with a white "cream filled center" like an Oreo Cookie on one side and "spilled milk" on the other! She also has frosted ears and nose, big blue eyes and is disbudded. Oreo was bred to ONYX January 2023. If the pregnancy is confirmed we anticipated mid June kids.
"Miss Molly"
(Click above to view Molly's pedigree)
Born: 05-19-2022
Sire: Blue Cactus EV Chance of Reign
Molly is a delightful doe out of our foundation doe, Sienna. (Love those genetics!) Her coat has lightened up to be a rich dark chocolate color now to match her brown eyes. Molly has been bred to ONYX for an anticipated early July 2023 delivery. She was only about 5 months old in the picture above, a newborn in the picture on the left and a month old in the picture on the right
"Cameo"
(click above to view Cameo's pedigree)
Born: 05-19-2022
Sire: Blue Cactus EV Chance of Reign
Cameo is another one of our beautiful Blue eyed Does with a Black and Tan Sundgau coat pattern out of our foundation doe, Sienna! (Luna's full sister.) Cameo has been bred to ONYX for an anticipated June 2023 delivery. She was only about 4 months old in this picture.
"Paisley"
(Click above to view Paisley's pedigree)
BORN: 07/03/2022
Sire: Prairie Pines Gold Dust Rio
Paisley, is our brown eyed, polled (naturally hornless), chocolate chamoisee doeling. She has flashy white markings over her coat which resemble a "paisley print fabric"! She is sweet yet can be quite independent also. She gets along great with the other doelings we have retained. I have not integrated her in with the mature does yet, as they have been "pen breeding" earlier than we desired Paisley to be bred. We are looking forward to have some more polled doelings in our herd in the future! (More recent pictures coming soon.)
"Fancy"
(Click above to view Fancy's pedigree)
BORN: 06-23-2022
Sire: Prairie Pines Gold Dust Rio
Dam: BigWhitePines CH Made U Smile
Fancy is our brown eyed, polled (naturally hornless) doeling with a light Chamoisee coat and random white markings. The interesting patterns on her face gave rise to her full name. She takes after her dam, "Madi", and tends to be on the small size. I plan to wait until next Spring 2024 to breed Fancy. Fancy's favorite place to be is in your lap.
Kids retained (for now) from our 2022 Breedings
