Blue Moon is a quite stunning mini nubian. His lovely front-end assembly, rear leg angulation, and length of body added to the lovely udders and good milk creds in his pedigree makes the choice to retain him as a new herd sire an easy one!

Blue Moon's sire is Storybook Farm's Sir Lancelot.
Sir Lancelot is a stunning purebred F7 mini nubian. He has a calm, friendly personality and great milk creds. He is long and deep bodied with soft dairy skin, good rear leg angulation and a high, wide escutcheon.
The following is his pedigree. He brings together two well-known mini nubian lines, Goat Trails and Echo hills.
Lance's sire is Goat Trails Finley's Gem Texas Pete *B. Pete is a handsome polled buck from Texas. Two of his daughters earned their milk star this year. Various of his sisters have earned their milk star too.
