KAP Frank Sinatra - 100% New Zealand Buck
KAP Frank Sinatra brings something important to the herd: farm-tested performance under real Ozarks conditions.
He was born a triplet and posted the highest 90-day adjusted weaning weight index (135) in his group, with a 90-day adjusted weaning weight of 63 lbs — strong early growth despite increased competition as a multiple.
His dam, KAP Limited Edition, was also a triplet and ranked as the top adjusted weaning weight index doeling in her weaning group, reinforcing consistent maternal performance.
His sire, KAP Thror, has never been wormed and has never required hoof trimming, and his dam KAP Limited Edition has likewise never been wormed. Frank Sinatra comes from a Missouri breeder, Perrodise Farms, who does not use dewormers and instead relies on strict culling for parasite tolerance and soundness.
His pedigree traces back to proven foundation lines including MGR Titan’s Hammer, the ADG record setter at the Fort Valley Georgia Buck Test, along with JKC Hammer’s Keeper, WMB Hobo and GHK Isaiah’s Fire — genetics known for durability and long-term influence in pasture-based herds.
Frank Sinatra represents the kind of buck we value: selected first for function, survivability, and performance, with DATA that supports those traits.
Update 3/28/26: At about 1 1/2 years old, KAP Frank Sinatra has consistently held a FAMACHA of 1 or 2 and still has never been wormed. He does have fast growing feet that need a trim a few times a year, but they don't grow crooked, just fast enough that they need a trim every once in a while. His latest FEC was 350 EPG, which is great! Previously, I did a FEC on him about two weeks after we bought him in Aug 2025 and it was 500 EPG.
*500 or below is considered light worm load, 501-2000 is moderate, and over 2000 EPG is considered high and the goat should be dewormed.
