AGS Classification Scores
We also participate in the American Goat Society’s Classification program. In classification, an animal is given a final percentage score based on 100 being perfect. In addition, each area of the animal is evaluated and assigned points based on how close that part comes to being ideal. For example, if an animal is given four (4) points out of the allotted five (5) on teats, that is 80%, and the owner knows that the teats on that animal are only 80% of the ideal. The Classifier inputs the score of each area of the body into an app on their phone. After they finish, the program calculates the final score, which the Classifier tells you right away. AGS sends you the score breakdown via email within a day or two, but I had my score breakdown much faster than that. The following pdf is the score breakdown.

Awards
Kismet had a single kid in 2023, and her milk production reflected that. To top it off, it turns out that unbeknownst to me at the time, she got bred by Kinetic in a buck breakout at the end of August. This is why it is very important to note heat AND buck breakouts on the calendar. 😉 Anyway, I noticed that she was drying herself off and looking larger than normal a couple weeks after our November milk test, so I ultrasounded her. Sure enough, she has a least one baby in there. So, I dried her off in preparation for a late January kidding. She was only in milk for 203 days in 2023 and didn’t earn her *M. We’ll try again in 2024. 🙂
Kismet earned her *M in all three categories (milk, butterfat, and protein) during her 2024 lactation. She is an AR (Advanced Registry) doe and all her bucklings will have their *B designation as long as their sire is a *B or +B.
Sire
Kismets’s sire is *B Land of Havilah ML Galaxy. We retained Galaxy as a Herd Sire in 2020. He is out of Land of Havilah ML Lilly 4*M and *B Land of Havilah TRC Midas. He has the qualities that I’ve been breeding for with a strong chine, level topline, very dairy skin texture, beautiful head and ears. Both his front and rear leg are set correctly. His front legs are straight from both front and side. I love the capacity he has even as a young buck. And his hairdo is rockin lol. I think he will be the biggest buck I have ever owned by the time he is mature. He passes his very dairy skin on to his kids, which promises excellent udder texture in his daughters.
Dam
Kismet’s dam is Land of Havilah LRD Silhouette 4*M. Silhouette is a gorgeous doe that we are blessed to have in our herd. She is our first keeper doe out of Legacy and we are so impressed with her so far! She has gorgeous breed character, with a long, bell shaped ears and a lovely roman nose. She is balanced in her front legs and has a really nice rear leg angulation. I love the substance of bone that Legacy has added! I really like the blending she has from her neck into her withers and the strength and levelness in her back. She is milking extremely well and I’m looking forward to our linear appraisal!
In 2022, Silhouette scored Very Good in Head, Dairy Strength, and Body (capacity); and Good Plus in Shoulder Assembly, Front Legs, Rear Legs, Feet, Back, Rump, General Appearance, and Mammary. Her final score was 02-03 82 +VV+. LA: September 20, 2022.
Silhouette earned her *M in all three categories on our August 28, 2022 milk test, which earns her AR and provides all of her bucklings with his *B designation as long as his sire is a *B or +B.
