September Breeding plans

We are just breeding two does for February kiddings.
Sweet Flowers Poppy and Sweet Flowers Clematis.

                                                Sweet Flowers Poppy.
DOB: March 25 2007
"Poppy is a very level doe with good dairy character and angularity. She has a nice rear udder with good height and width. She has a nice fore udder but I'd like it to be just a bit longer. If I were to change her I  would make her a little stronger in the feet and legs.
Kidded March 30 2015-Single buckling.  Milked out in 1st picture. 
Milk record. 2014-16 lbs/day"

We've had Poppy for 6 years and STILL don't have a surviving purebred doeling out of her! Maybe this year... 
I will be keeping any and all of Poppy's doe kids next year, but her bucklings will all be available for $250.

                                                         Sweet Flowers Clematis
Clematis in fall of 2014. Almost dried up.
Clematis in Spring 2015
"Clematis received 1 of her champion legs in 2012 and placed 2nd in the Aged doe class in the Open Show at the NC state fair this year.She has good length and levelness throughout, good depth and body capacity.  She has a well attached mammary system, with very nice shape to her udder and teats. She has nice, angular rear legs and clean sharp withers. I'd like to see her blended a little more smoothly and a little stronger in the feet and legs.  
7 years old.
LA 2013-89 VEEE. Kidded April 3-single doeling."
I just bought Clematis after the NC State Fair last year and we have been very pleased with her. I kept a very nice doeling out of her, Merry Oaks LucyInTheSky.
I'm hoping to get some more doelings out of her, 1st doeling is retained, 2nd $350. Bucks are $300.
Clematis will be 7 next year. 

Both Clematis and Poppy will be bred to Adonis, repeat breedings from last year.
