KIKO CORNER
High-seller brings $8,500 at 4th Heritage Showcase sale
The fourth annual Heritage Kiko Showcase on Saturday, Aug. 7, in Carrolton, Ga., was another huge success with the top-seller bringing $8,500. Kiko breeders from Texas to the Atlantic offered more than 70 head of registered breeding stock. All consignments were checked for any blemishes or cull factors, including knots, scars, bad mouths, hooves or udders.
In addition to the sale, the Showcase featured a day of educa- tional seminars on Friday and homemade goat meat tamales for lunch on Saturday.
The high-selling buck and doe at the sale both were consigned
by Dr. Kraig and Suzanne Stemme of Lake Fork Kikos in Alba, Texas. The top-selling buck was Lot 66, LFK Sesame’s Silver Spur. He was purchased for $7,000 by Chad Maxwell and Gail Maxwell of Maxwell Kiko Farm in Waycross, Ga. The high-selling doe was Lot 67, LFK Sweetie Pie. She sold for $8,500 to Bud and Lori Camp- bell of Damascus, Va.
Here are the sale averages: • 58 NZ does sold for $1,930 avg. • 4 PB does sold for $1,050 avg. • 2 percentage does for $550 avg. • 2 bucks sold (1 no sale) for $6,500 avg. • 6 semen lots sold for $954 avg.
The high-selling Texas-bred Kiko doe has a new home in Virginia.
As usual, the authentic goat meat tamales were a hit dur- ing the complimentary lunch served before the sale.
