I am posting this for a friend, who will be joining as a member here soon. Her name is Linda and she has a very nice oberhasli operation in Moses Lake, WA. I love Alpines and Oberhaslis, but most of the obers I would find were too small for the size of work animals I want. I was very excited when I met Linda, and discovered her huge bucks Tank and Earl. I have learned that from the imported bucks from Switzerland, one of those bucks name Sento was huge. The few large ober packers we see come from the rare Sento line. Earl is of the Sento line and is huge, and only 2 years old and still growing. His father Larry had huge horns and was very large as well. I was very excited when Linda let me breed my awesome Alpine doe (from top quality from Dave, Trinity Pack Goats) to Earl. She is due at the end of April and I can't wait to see what she throws. Most farms hope for doelings, I hope for bucklings! 'I was also impressed with how good natured Earl is even as a breeding buck. He let me walk in his pen as a stranger and was very cool. Linda said she is asking $125 for bottle babies and the people can get a hold of her about horns or not, or picking up after weaning. You can pm me your info to pass on until she signs up here. Here are a couple of pics of the new borns, with many kids still on the way.
