HetlandCreek ZZ Black Hawk *B  VVE87

This boy is very heavy on some pretty amazingly proven, consistent lines and I'm very excited to be able to add him to my herd.  He is 15.88% linebred with the top contributor being the very well known GCH Algedi Farm Drops of Jupiter EEE91; followed closely by the legendary SGCH Roshasharn's UMT Tupelo Honey EEEE91 Elite doe.  I chose him not only for his phenomenal lines and pedigree on paper but also for the amazing udder genetics behind him - check out the whopping amount of "excellent" mammary scores in his pedigree below!  Hawk's dam has the udder structure that I am striving toward in my breeding program.  Almost every Hawk kid has been stamped with more depth, width, and more level rumps over their dams - something I'm thankful to see as these are areas many of my does need some improvment with!

​

His dam, Harmony, scored an amazing VVEE89 as a 2 year old first freshener - the highest a FF can receive!  Her second Linear Appraisal in 2019 was just as consistent with a final score of VVEE90.  She is a very impressive doe and I'm so thankful for this opportunity to bring one of her bucks as a herdsire into my herd. 

​

Unfortunately I haven't been breeding him to too many does the last couple of years.  Almost half my herd are his daughters and the others that I had him slated for he wasn't able to breed by my cutoff date due to a rear leg injury (that has since fully healed) so I was only successful in getting 1 doe bred to him for the 2024/2025 season.  Hawk has pretty much worked himself out of a job here but I'm hoping for that last chance at retaining some more kids from him so I may try for fall kids before making him available to others....
