Cedar Creek CCL Oreo Truffle
Oreo
Barn Name:
Oreo was bred by Cedar Creek Mini Nubian Farm. He is polled, and comes from some stellar udder genetics. His granddam, **Ivyridge Total Eclipse of the Heart, won best udder in show and Reserve Grand Champion Senior Doe at the May 2022 Texas Two Step put on by the Texas Mini Milkers, and his sire, Cedar Creek STM Lendor, placed first as an Intermediate buck in both rings at the 2021 MDGA Fall V-show. In 2023, Lendor won Reserve Grand Champion as a 2 year old Senior Buck in the 2023 Fall MDGA V-Show. Oreo's dam, Cedar Creek ME Snow Bunny 2*P, won Senior Doe Reserve Grand Champion at the 2023 Memorial Classic put on by the Texas Mini Milkers. We can't wait to see the improvements he brings to our herd.
Oreo is black with frosted ears and nose, white poll, white blaze, partial white belt, and random white on his legs and feet. He appears to be heterozygous for polled, meaning he only has one copy of the polled gene, as he has produced both polled and horned kids.
Pedigree
Sire:
Cedar Creek STM Lendor
Cedar Creek STM Lendor is a gorgeous polled chocolate buck bred by Cedar Creek Mini Nubian Farm. In 2023, Lendor won Mini Nubian Reserve Grand Champion Senior Buck in the 2023 MDGA Fall V-show. As an young buckling, Lendor placed 1st with both judges as an intermediate jr. buck in the 2021 Fall MDGA V-show. Lendor also has show wins in his lineage as his dire, Southern Grace Shoot ToTheMoon ("Rocket") placed first with both judges and won Grand Champion Jr Buck as a Nigerian Dwarf Sr Buckling during the 2019 MDGA Fall V-show.
Lendor is a 1st generation mini nubian as his dam, Dahlia May's Farm Charisma ("Rizzo"), is standard Nubian and his sire, Southern Grace Shoot ToTheMoon ("Rocket") is a standard Nigerian Dwarf. Lendor's coat pattern is solid black like Oreo's. However, he carries the genetic modifier for chocolate such that all areas of his coat pattern that are black become dilute and appear brown. Lendor also has frosted ears and nose, wide white belt, white poll, white blaze, and random white on his feet and ankles. Lendor has a very level top line, strong brisket, and is a great example of dairy power in bucks.
