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. KAP Frank Sinatra's littermate sister was a keeper at Perrodise Farms and has never been wormed and never needed a hoof trim.
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 8/24/26: FAMACHA back to 1 at the fall buck health check where we check for breeding soundness. Good feet, body condition, and FAMACHA score.
Update 5/18/26: FAMACHA 3 under spring's heavy parasite pressure, 550 EPG on his fecal sample.
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 once 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.
KIWI 2672 - 100% NZ Junior Herdsire
KIWI 2672 — 100% New Zealand Kiko Junior Herdsire
KIWI 2672 — 100% New Zealand Kiko Junior Herdsire
Sire: KAP Frank Sinatra
Dam: SLA Kaladin's 2830
Birth Rank: 2-2 (Twin born, twin raised)
90-Day Adjusted Weaning Weight: 58 lbs
KIWI 2672 is an exciting addition to our breeding program and was our highest-indexing Kiko buck kid of the 2026 kidding season.
A twin born and raised by SLA Kaladin's 2830, KIWI 2672 combines excellent early growth with the functional traits we prioritize in our herd. He achieved an impressive 58-pound adjusted 90-day weaning weight, while demonstrating sound feet, clean 1×1 teat structure, and consistently excellent FAMACHA scores.
Like his parents, KIWI 2672 has never required deworming, making him a promising young prospect for our continued selection toward parasite resistance, growth, and low-maintenance productivity.
We were impressed enough with this pairing to retain not only KIWI 2672 as a junior herdsire, but also his twin sister as a replacement doe.
Our goal is to produce Kikos that combine strong growth, parasite resistance, structural soundness, and the ability to thrive under practical pasture and forage-based management. KIWI 2672 represents the next generation of that breeding philosophy.
KAP Frank Sinatra's littermate sister July 2026. They have the same ears! The whole family has never needed to be dewormed.
