Dartanian Man! (That is his barn name.) He is such a handsome dude, look at this boy’s ears! He is a very nice buck with lots of promise as one of our herd sires. He has lots of rich, creamy milk in his pedigree and great breed character. We are hopeful Dartanian will pass all this to his kids. He is well put together and such a gentleman! We are thrilled Dartanian Man is one of the herd sires at our small farm of Mini Nubians.

Camo, see Camo’s spots! He is such a handsome boy with promise of great things as one of our herd sires. His mother has a stunning udder with correct teats and lots of rich, creamy milk. She also has wonderful conformation. Camo’s father has gorgeous breed character with moonspots. We are so excited Camo is one of the herd sires on our small farm of Mini Nubians. We look forward to him leaving his mark … MILK and SPOTS!
Rufus, aka “Roo,” offers genetic diversity as well as keeping some common genetics within our herd. He too has heavy milk in his family. Roo as a member of our herd sires will be a wonderful asset to our mini nubian farm. He is absolutely stunning with fantastic breed character with long ears and creamy milk being a plus.
Joey is a handsome blue roan buck. He has such a laid back personality like his mother. Joey is a very nice blend of his mother and father. We are looking forward to seeing what he adds to our herd of Mini Nubians. His mother is an easy milker with easy to milk teats and a nice udder.

Ben has such a wonderful personality. He is a very handsome dude with his gorgeous face and long, wide, frosted ears. Ben has some common genetics but offers some genetic diversity. Ben brings to our herd lots of milk with high butterfat. His mother also has a beautiful udder with long correct teats. We’re sure Ben will prove to be a great addition too our farm. Did we mention his wonderful personality … we couldn’t be more pleased!
Pete is such a handsome fellow! He brings in some new genetics while keeping some common genetics within our herd. An added bonus, Pete is also “polled” so we are very excited to add the polled genetics to our herd. Pete came all the way from Texas to join our family of Mini Nubians and we couldn’t be more pleased!
Manny with his mother’s milk genetics and father’s good looks will be one of our herd sires. He is a special boy … we knew the moment he was born. Manny was also born on Pi Day (March 14th – Pi=3.14) … his grandfather is VMCH Green Gables SS Moonbeam *B … so that’s how he got his name, Man In The Moon Pi, aka Manny. His great-grandmother is VMCH Echo Hill’s Molly O’Malley 2*P. His mother Dorothy peaked at just over 6 pounds as a first freshener. We are looking forward to the mark Manny will leave as one of our herd sires … MILK and SPOTS! After all he is Dorothy and Camo’s boy.

Patrick is long and very dairy with his dairy skin. He has so many rolls and loose skin. We have his half sister, Grace, and love how she performs in the milk stand. She has lots of sweet, creamy milk! Patrick also has lots of milk with high butterfat in his father’s side.
Lil Chip with his mother’s milk genetics and father’s good looks will be one of our herd sires. We had to keep Chip since he was Camo’s last son even though we have his full brother and just love what Manny has done in our herd.
Sometimes everything needs to stop so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor...Huckleberry Cheesecake!!! Our ladies worked hard making milk for cream cheese and wild huckleberries grown on our farm.
2023 kidding season has officially come to an end at Hurlburt Farms. Ruth and Jack blessed us with chocolates and spots. It was an eventful kidding season starting with a full moon baby. Then we had snow storm babies, Pi Day babies, St. Patrick’s Day babies,1st day of spring babies and yesterday morning chore time babies. Our next event will be milk testing.
