Geneticists,
animal and plant breeders all agree that producing superior
breeding stock is accomplished in only one way and that is
by intense line breeding to genetically superior individuals
and maintaining those homozygous lines as pure as possible.
Any other way is considered “just luck”. The crossing of
these pure lines then, enables the genetic hybrid vigor that
produces outstanding individuals. The first critical task is
identifying individuals worthy of intense line breeding. We
have Lynn and Jim Farmer,
Farmers Stock
Exchange, to thank for this. By identifying Mojo
Magic **Ennobled** as one of those rare sires that rise
above the rest genetically, they have provided the genetic
purity needed for serious breeders.
Through
the years, Mojo has proven his worth as a sire of individual
excellence and more importantly, as a sire that can stand
the rigors of intense line breeding. No other U.S. Boer goat
has shown this type of superior genetic power.
At
Pair-A-Docs we have used Mojo as the foundation for our
breeding program. We closely line breed through direct Mojo
offspring as well as superior sons and daughters. With
rigorous culling, we have accumulated a small herd of
superior, genetically homozygous individuals that trace in
all generations to Mojo. We regularly attempt to find other
genetically superior individuals to cross with, but will
always tie our genetics back to the Mojo line. What we can
provide with this intense program is breeding stock for sale
that is tightly wound genetically so the benefits of their
homogeneity is experience when crossed on outside lines.
In 2004
we have used the
Rocking R Boer Goats breeding program as an
outcross. Most of the Ryals goats are tightly linebreed
Magnum. We have used these intensely bred individuals in 2
ways. We have bred quadruple Magnum bucks on quadruple Mojo
does and FSE 3083 FSE 3083 Dyna-Mo **Ennobled** **Ennobled** on several outstanding Ryals does like
AABG/LOID Cover Girl. We can't wait to see the results.
More
thanks to Jim and Lynn for allowing us to obtain a direct
Mojo son out of 845 Amelo, "Precious Perfect", a Mojo X
Frances daughter. FSE 3083 Dyna-Mo **Ennobled**, almost 2 years old, is an
outstanding individual with superior phenotype and intense
genotype (75% Mojo). His
First Kids are proving the breeding
philosophy we adhere to with big, strong, dark headed kids
with a prettiness about them from day one. We are proud to
own such and individual with J. B. Hutto. FSE 3083 Dyna-Mo
**Ennobled** has won 3
consecutive class wins and twice Champion Yearling and
Reserve Overall Champion Buck at 14 months old. He was 4th
out of 69 at the ABGA Nationals and 2 overall Championships
as a long yearling.
FSE
3083 Dyna-Mo **Ennobled** is unique in his ability to
improve udders of his kids. He is 2 teated, his mother is 2
teated and Mojo was 2 teated. Over 92% of his sons and
daughters have been 2 teated. I will keep a running list of
his daughters udder structure as numbers come in.
Total number of doe kids: 107
Number that are 2 teated: 98
Number that are 3 teated: 3
Number that are 4 teated: 5
Number of cull udders: 1
This
might be Guinness Book of World Record kind of stuff
