INDIANA STATE FAIR
CHAMPION SPOTLIGHT

Reserve Grand Champion Market Goat – 2023 Indiana State Fair
Shown by Caroline Sullivan – Bred by Blue Team

What’s the pedigree of your champion?
BTW Good As Gold (Clone of BTW Black Gold)

How many years have you been raising Goats?
Blue Team Wethers was established in 1999. So we have been raising goats for about 24 years!

How many head do you run?
We run approximately 1200 head

How has the new reproduction practices impacted your herd?
We flush 7 months out of the year, and during those 7 months we flush close to 250 donors. We AI all of our natural does, and beginning in 2020 we started doing some IVF work as well.  All of these reproduction practices have drastically improved our herd and allowed us to utilize our herd sires more efficiently.

What buck or Doe has been most influential to your herd?
That is a hard question and one that we don’t take lightly, but the most influential buck for us was probably Soldier Boy.  He added so many good things in his off-spring and we were strategic when keeping Soldier Boy bred does for our donor pen, along with several Soldier Boy bred bucks to our battery.  His Legacy will continue to make an impact for years to come.

SAN ANGELO STOCK SHOW CHAMPION SPOTLIGHT

Grand Champion Market Goat – 2023 San Angelo Stock Show
Shown by Cydney Newsom – Bred by Blue Team

What is the best decision you think you made for your operation?
We have been doing this a while, so we have made lots of decisions over the years, but probably the best decision was in 2014 when we decided to move our operation to our ranch in Zephyr. We built a facility and operation that is extremely functional and user friendly and one we enjoy operating  and working in daily.

What buck has played the biggest part in getting you to where you are today?
There are many BTW sires that have played a huge role in our operation from the beginning. Bucks like Starbuck, that were before their time, gave us a doe and donor base like no other. And then there is Soldier Boy who has made more Champions than I can list, and has played a major role in creating  many stud bucks and donor does over the years. Both Starbuck and Soldier Boy have made a lasting impact on BTW genetics and will definitely hold a place in our history books.

What was your opinion on your champion as a baby?
Cydney’s wether was a Hat Trick X Went doe (purchased at 2021 Friday Night Fiesta). Hat Trick has sired some great ones for us. We were excited to take him to Friday Night Fever and offer him on that stage!

If you could take over another operation what would it be and why?
I don’t think we have enough hours in our days to take anything else on! We better stick with the goats!

Who would you like to thank for getting you where you are today?
Joe Raff, our partner at BTW, has played a huge roll in our matings for flushes, and is a true genetic mastermind. He has taught me so much over the years, especially on the genotype end of the show wether operation. His knowledge is priceless and always appreciated!

Both Starbuck and Soldier Boy have made a lasting impact on BTW genetics and will definitely hold a place in our history books.

What was your opinion on your champion as a baby?
Carson’s wether was a EZ Bake x Soldier Boy x Kilo. We thought he was a very complete animal. He had a genetic combination of power, hard muscle, bone, and shag. Those 4 pieces should put together a pretty good one in our opinion!!!!

Brisco’s wether was Moose X ALi X Silver Bullets mom. As a baby he had all the pieces and parts. He was a little green, but definitely was one we felt could put it all together. His pedigree was stout. Moose was one of our favorite new sires, and he sired the Grand Champion Market Goat at NAILE in 2022. Ali was known for the doe base he sired, and Silver Bullet is one of our current herd sires!

Flint’s wether was a P67 x Hoss x Soldier Boy.  Two shots of Soldier Boy with the Schrank genetics (P67) is a definite no brainer. That genetic combination has sired many Champions, and we had no doubt about this one either!

NAILE
CHAMPION SPOTLIGHT

Grand Champion Market Goat – 2022 NAILE
Shown by Hayden Schroeder – Bred by Blue Team

Hayden’s wether was sired by BTW Moose.

As a breeder, what is one trait you won’t tolerate?
As a breeder we like good looking, good moving and good made livestock with plenty of muscle. A lack of any of those traits would be something we wouldn’t tolerate in our breeding program.

Tell us about your family, and how they are involved in your operation
My son Hayden and wife Deana are a huge part of what we do here at Blue Team Wethers. They are part of everything from kidding out babies, sale preparations, feeding, and selection. It is definitely a family affair and one that we spend many hours working together for the betterment of our operation.

Over the past years, the goat show world has drastically changed, what do you think has had the most impact on that?
I think there are probably several factors that have changed the goat world over the past few years. Online sale platforms and being able to ship livestock across the country really made it possible to get genetics out there and change and improve breeding programs. The opportunities to purchase semen, jumps, etc has also made a huge impact on the show goat world as well.

When you have a champion in the grand drive, are you able to watch? Or does the suspense get to you?
We absolutely watch every opportunity we can. If we are not there in person we appreciate the fact that a lot of shows have a live stream, so we can root for our goats from anywhere!

What is one thing you are breeding for to constantly make the next generation better?
We like to think that we are a forward thinking operation, and that your kid crops each year should be going in that forward direction as well. We believe that by introducing some outside genetics from successful breeders each year to improve and keep our program moving forward is one major thing we do to make the next generations better.

Shown by Hayes Henderson – Bred by Blue Team

Fabio X Black Friday
BTW Fabio has been an intrical part of our breeding program. He’s sired his fair share of banner winners and one of our favorite BTW sires, Rip!!! Fabio’s dam, Ronda, holds a special place in our breeding program and has made a lasting impression for sure!

Paige and Cruella had a fun jackpot season and were selected Grand Champion Breeding Doe at the 2022 American Royal.

The wether is BTW Moose X BTW Ali
Moose sired the Grand Champion Market Wether at the 2022 NAILE and had sired several of our upcoming keeper bucks. Ali’s flushmate sisters and does retained out of Ali have been extremely important in our breeding program!!!

Hayes has won numerous fall jackpot shows and fairs with his wether! They have definitely had a banner run. This wether was purchased in an online wether sale at SC Online sales, and placed by Chad Walker Livestock.

What is your Favorite doe/donor and why?
We have several donor does that are super special to us here at BTW, and Ronda and Kiki definitely rise to the top of that list. Each were banner winners in their show days, and each have sired several stud bucks for us, that have added lots of depth to our buck battery.

What us your advice for families wanting to start showing goats?
The advice that we like to give is to find a breeder you are comfortable with, and one that can help with starting your projects on the right foot. We also strongly encourage finding a person that can help serve as a second set of eyes for your show projects. We can’t express enough how important this is in a successful showbarn setting!!!

Treadmill vs Track
We do both. If you are blessed with a good track dog, we feel that can definitely change a program for the better. We also use the treadmill a lot and feel that is an investment that pays dividends as well.

Chain vs Halter
We definitely suggest chains, but understand that all goats are not compatible with a chain and a halter might be necessary. We also know that goats are strong and for a young showman a halter can give the added confidence needed for them to get started on a positive foot!

OHIO STATE FAIR
CHAMPION SPOTLIGHT

Reserve Market Goat – 2022 Ohio State Fair
Shown by Ethan Davies – Bred by Blue Team

Pedigree/Genetics of this Champion:
Ethan’s wether was out of BTW SHAKE AND BAKE X BLACK BETTY. Black Betty was the champion middle weight doe at 2020 NAILE and shown by the Pence family.

Ethan had a really fun summer with this wether bringing home several big jackpot wins. He was sold in our online fall born sale and placed by Cooper Bounds.

What is your Favorite doe/donor and why?
We have a very large and extensive flush program. We flush close to 250 head a year. We hold many of those donors to the highest regards and love so many things about all of them, but if I had to pick a donor that I feel has made a legendary mark here at BTW it would be a close decision between Ronda and Kiki. Ronda is no longer alive but the lasting impression she has made here will live on through many generations! She was the dam to BTW Fabio, BTW Black Gold, the Champion Doe at the 2019 AZ Nationals, and the Grand Champion Market Goat at the 2020 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.    Kiki is the mother to BTW Shake and Bake and Magic Man, the Grand Champion Market Goat at the 2020 GA Nationals, the Grand Champion Market Goat at the Tulsa State Fair, Reserve Grand Champion Market Goat at 2020 NAILE and the Grandmother to our newset stud buck I Am Legend!!!

Advice for exhibitors?
Our advice is to find a breeder that you feel comfortable working with and one that will answer questions for you during the duration of your project. Get on a good feeding program: fresh and easily accessible feed is very important!!! Exercise programs are also important. Whether you have outside help deciding on the best exercise program for your animals or you make that decision yourself, stay consistent and find one that works for your family and with your goals!

Treadmill vs Track
We like and do both! To us they each have a specific role in a successful program and creating a specific program for each animal in your barn is crucial!

Chain vs Halter 
We prefer a chain, but do understand there are animals and circumstances where a halter must be used.

Talan’s wether was sold in our January Fall Born online sale at SC Online. He was placed by Dave Williams and Cooper Bounds.

How did you get involved in the industry?
We have been raising show wethers since 1999. We got started with the hopes of raising competitive wethers for our children and it evolved into a full-time occupation!

What is one of the most memorable events from your time as a breeder?
We have been in the industry for a long time and have really enjoyed watching exhibitors find success with our genetics over the years. It’s amazing when your own children win, but it’s just as rewarding when your customers, who actually become family, find success of their own..

What do you think has pushed your program forward over the years?
We have always been progressive thinkers and breeders. Bringing in outside genetics and finding those out crosses that work with our genetics has helped continue to move in the right direction. We also enjoy creating unique pieces of livestock, and our intense flush programs help us continue to make those unique pieces and creatures.

What is your favorite part about raising goats? 
I think that we really enjoy seeing the babies hit the ground. It’s in those moments that let you know almost immediately if your work in lining up the flush matings worked. We kid out 9 months of the year, so we sort of have to like “kidding season”!!!
