Sprite is a large, long, level and very strong doe. She’s very correct in general appearance, and has a very capacious well attached mammary system with a strong medial. As a Junior Yearling she was 1st place at the 1997 ADGA National Show in Harrisburg, PA. When she freshened for the first time she came in with mastitis, and it took a couple of years to get it entirely cleared up. While once we got that taken care of, she easily finished her GCH, the value of this doe truly is in her offspring.
There have been 9 daughters - 6 of which remain in our herd. One lives with Ray & Dene Engeman in Oregon- SG Kastdemur’s Surge 2*M EX90 4-0 285 2537 80, and the other, Kastdemur’s Hot Chocolate 2*M was sold in the 2002 Spotlight Sale for $3500 to Olive Guck of Minnesota, and is now deceased, but did produce over 2,000 lbs. as a yearling milker. Two of Sprite’s daughters (SGCH Kastdemur’s Seven-Up 2*M EX91, now deceased & GCH Kastdemur’s Mountain Dew 2*M EX91) have become ADGA Reserve National Champions, five have won individual classes at the National Show (Seven-Up, Mountain Dew, Citra, Survivor & most recently Shasta) and they have also won Produce of Dam honors at both the local level and at National Shows for Sprite many times over. Four times in a row, from 2001 to 2004, her produce was 1st at the National Show...until this year, when her granddaughters won the class (with Sprite’s daughters 2nd place) for her daughter Citra. Of Sprite’s daughters, 6 have appraised Excellent, and 2 were 89 as yearling milkers this past year (both with Excellent mammaries). Only one was never appraised. All have extremely strong production records as well as you can see throughout this website.
Her sons have also done well - Inside Information produced GCH Kastdemur’s Chocolat 2*M EX 91 who was 2004 ADGA National LaMancha Best Udder when she stood 2nd pl./1st udder 3-yr-old. Other sons include Kastdemur’s Fresca & Kastdemur’s Live Wire EX90 who sired one of the 2005 ADGA Spotlight Sale doelings – Heart-Mt.-Carter-Kids Mystere’ who sold for $1500.00.
We think that Sprite is an amazing LaMancha, due to many factors, including her amazing spirit & gusto for life, in addition to her ability to produce offspring that are even better than she is herself...her grandchildren are making names for themselves as well now ...
