HERD SIRES
Legendairy Rhafe’s Rhuckus-DOB 5-22-2024
Link to Rhuckus’s planned pedigree (registration pending)
We retained Rhuckus as his dam, GCH Legendairy Rhiptide Rhiccochet (EX 92) produced one of our most competive toggenburgs, GCH Legendairy EH Rhupee (EX 91). On his sire’s side, Rhafe’s twin, Rhuthie (EX 90) had the width in the rear and strong production we have been looking to add to Rhicochet’s beautiful frame. Rhafe’s dam, SGCH Legendairy Chip’s Rhaffia was an excellent milker and was the dam to our first place milking yearling at the 2021 National Show, GCH Legendairy EH Rhelish. These lines have crossed well in the past and we think will again. Rhuckus has been bred to both Chip daughters and to Tonks as her planned AI did not take. Additionally, his twin, Rheiki, was retained as well.

After seeing Verve’s dam on the local club and fair circuit last year, I contacted Korey Statton to get an order in on a Versive buck kid. In 2021, she was one of the loveliest Toggenburgs I had the opportunity to judge, with a beautiful, long dairy frame and a near ideal mammary system. Finding out she was also purebred was icing on the cake. We are so excited to have Verve and look forward to breeding him to some our best does this fall.

Rhiptide has so much bone and width and with the added track record of such a strong dam line, we feel confident in incorporating Rhiptide into our breeding program. Rhiptide’s twin sister Rhiffle was the 2nd/3rd udder milking yearling at the 2018 National Show. His half sister Rhodanthe was the 3rd place 2-year old at the 2018 National Show. Another half sister, Legendairy ER Vera appraised EX 91 (VEEE) in 2019. He now has some fancy daughters on the ground too. He sired the 1st place junior get of sire at the 2019 MN State Fair, and we are excited about his two milking daughters in our herd, Rhamona and Rhichochet.

Dam’s Sire: GCH KBARC Chaos Fool’s Pleasure

*Reserve National Champion, 2011 National Show*
It was heartbreaking to lose Chip a few weeks after the 2016 National Show, especially on the heels of such success with his daughters. He has made an incredible impact on our herd in only 4 years, adding dairyness, length of body, refinement, improved teat size and placement, and milk! He is now related to practically the entire herd, so his use in the future would have been more limited for us, but we are disappointed that he will not make a more sizeable influence on the breed. He was collected, but only limited quantities are now left. At this time, we have no semen for sale.

Burgeon in August of 2012 Burgeon’s Dam: SGCH Sunshine Justice Burta
Burgeon is extremely dairy, wide in the rear, sharp, and correct. HIs dam, Burta, has borne some highly consistent sons in herds across the country and was an exceptional representative of the breed for both type and production. Besides SG Legendairy SBB Rhoma who was the 5th Place 2-Year Old at the 2014 National Show, Burgeon sired Sunshine Buregon Lorat, the Toggenburg Best of Breed and Best Udder in Show at the 2014 Wisconsin State Fair. Two more daughters in the Sunshine herd appraised excellent in the fall of 2014. Burgeon definitely throws strength and power with lots of width throughout. His milking daughters thus far have very fancy mammary systems as well, with high, wide rear udders and smooth, nicely extended fore udders. Burgeon has been collected by Biogenics and is marketed through them as well.

Starbuck played a major role in the development of our Toggenburg breeding program. He was the sire of Rhone, Rhumba, Rhapsody, as well as other top performing Toggenburg does throughout the Midwest. He was beautifully-bodied and passed his size, correctness, and strength on to his offspring. He has sired breed leaders for production as well as the 2010 Toggenburg Premier Sire at Nationals, Legendairy Rhumba’s Rhett owned by Redbird Acres.
Biogenics has now sold out of Starbuck semen.
