We are fortunate enough to have created the majority of the donors and stud bucks in our program. Our team takes great pride in making strides within Alter Ego Show Goats for generations to come.

Champion

A large portion of our donors are champions themselves within the ring and we are proud to have brought these girls back to Wakeman to improve the program

Dam of a Champion

Some of our donors did not get campaigned on a show sting, but they dammed some of our favorite backdrop winners.

All-Star

This icon will serve to designate our all-stars. Some of these donor are the keystones of our program and others always hit it out of the park on flush day

SIRE: Tag Team

DAM: Whistle’s Brother

Khalessi was purchased by our firm with the intentions to campaign her as a show doe and then hit the flush table as soon as possible. Our team was fortunate enough to view Khalessi before Clark and Kathy made the trip to Orlando, OK to showcase her at The Exclusive. We knew that she would fit our needs as a show doe and production piece. Her show career was short lived and extremely impactful being crowned the GRAND DOE JABGA NATIONALS. We then knew we needed to start phase two and get her back to Wakeman to start generating elite livestock that can be fed to reach the backdrop themselves. Khalessi no doubt will be a fundamental building block in our firm for years to come.

SIRE: Whistle’s Brother DAM: Lil’ Smokie

If you are paying any attention at all it is quite obvious how we feel about what this donor has to offer. After acquiring “CROWN THE KING” we purchased his flushmate sister “KHALESSI” who went on to win a national show. It wasn’t long after that we made a deal with Clark and Kathy to purchase their dam, Tag 2167.

From 1 flush this donor produces:

•Crown The King - $100,000 half interest buck.

•Khalessi - Grand Doe 2023 ABGA National Commercial Doe.

•Grand Market Goat Indiana Stock Show.

•Reserve Grand Goat Michigan Livestock Expo.

CROWN THE

With excellent flushmates off to an extremely hot start, including the 2023 JABGA National Grand Champion Commerical Doe, CROWN THE KING looks to be one of the hottest young sires that we have had the opportunity to work with. Visually, KING’s extension, progression of width, and charismatic presence is unmatched. Very rarely do stock with CROWN THE KING’s elevation and elite attitude come equipped with the amount of mass, substance, and bulk this guy is packing. As is mandatory to enter the lineup, KING’s mom is an extra special animal that is backed by dominant, winning genetics from one of our favorite firms –Fledderjohann Show Goats. CROWN THE KING looks like the real deal to us – the kind that can add just about everything in one shot!

CARRY ON

SIRE: Carry the Boats

DAM: Tag Team x Oops

Bred by Fledderjohan Show Goats

Carry On’s dam is a flushmate to the Grand Doe at the Georgia Nationals. This buck is uniquely elite, Carry On is big caged, extremely wide in his pin set, tucked up in his chest floor, stout skulled, and tiny eared. He is flawless in his flexibility on the move. Carry On is stout from every angle and puts it all down with big timber to be truly unique. We could not think of a better prospect to tie into our program. This buck also comes from the deepest flush we have ever had the opportunity to evaluate. We look to utilize him early and often in our program.

Elite doe families separate the programs that will have generational success and those that will be a flash in the pan. After seeing how incredible Carry On was our eyes quickly diverted to a buck prospect with a lot of the same qualities in a FREAKY package. After viewing both bucks we wanted to double down on this genetic package so that we make the biggest impact on our program as well as our customers.

Progressive is a buck that brings a lot of hard to make pieces to the table including structural integrity, true skeletal width and as much feature as any in our industry. We look forward to seeing immediate impacts on our upcoming kid crop.

LumberghDAUGHTERS

AESG 3058 SERENA

SIRE: Lumbergh

DAM: Mufasa

The one the only,

UNDEFEATED

SERENA.

Undefeated, National Champion, Ohio State Fair Champion. This past winter when Alex Linder came home from OSU he said “This is the best one we’ve ever made”, I think he might have been right. There isn’t much that needs to be said because she speaks for herself. She is a program changer and we intend to use her to do just that.

BIG PAINTS SISTER

SIRE: Lumbergh

DAM: Mufasa

Our first OVERALL RESERVE CHAMPION Commercial Doe at the Ohio State fair as well as OVERALL GRAND CHAMPION

Commercial Doe at the Buckeye Livestock Expo in 2022. “Big Paint” is a Flushmate to our Stud Buck “GOLDBERG”. She is an ET baby from our matriarch donor doe “Tag 9293” who has produced multiple does who have made their way into our donor pen. In her rookie year “Big Paint” produced 20 embryos and some of our most winning kids of the 2024 show season. She has made many of our high selling wethers, keeper does, and is adding to her resume quickly as a proven donor.

Big Paint and Sista’s dam has impacted our herd in a massive way. We have 4 keeper females and a buck out of their dam. She is also the mother to our high selling $9,000 wether at The Exhibition. Our firm has high hopes for both sisters as we head towards the upcoming kidding season!

SIRE: Lumbergh

AESG 1012

LITTLE PAINT

SIRE: Lumbergh

DAM: Mufasa

“Little Paint” was a huge part of our all-star lineup of 2022 wrapping up her show career as 5th Overall Commercial

Doe in Ohio. We love this female on the in motion, posed, and when you put your hands on her she handles like a rock. We believe “Little Paint” embodies exactly what donors should. We are fortunate enough to have two high end donors from this flush and look forward to implementing both of them as early and often as possible in our donor program.

LITTLE PAINTS SISTER

AESG 2037 RED TAIL

SIRE: Lumbergh

DAM: Mufasa

AESG 3100 SEXY RED

SIRE: Lumbergh

DAM: Mufasa

“SEXY RED” seemed like a fitting name for this red LUMBERGH doe kid. This doe had donor written all over her from the time she hit the ground. It is impossible not to become excited when a female comes equipped with so much feature. “Sexy Red” has a stout skull that sits on top of an extremely feminine neck while still being so pulled apart in her chest floor and pin set. She is the type we hope to recreate quickly and often in our ET program. Her stoutness and style from the side have made many take notice during their time in Wakeman. We are all in on this female and have big plans for her in our breeding operation.

Lumbergh was purchased from Kouns Livestock in 2020 after an exhausting search for a program changing stud buck. I do not believe I could possibly come up with the words to describe just how far Lumbergh has exceeded our expectations. In our show string alone he has produced Grand and Reserve Champion commercial does at the Ohio State Fair, a Grand Champion commercial doe at the ABGA national show, countless top 10 state fair does and wethers, as well as a

keeper stud buck and countless elite daughters in our donor pen. It is a tall order to find a buck that will generate kids with this kind of resume. We anticipate that you will find Lumbergh’s name in the pedigree of our firm’s champions for years to come.

NOT TONIGHT’S SISTER

SIRE: That’s What She Said DAM: O5 - Advancer

Tag 9164 was purchased as a bred from Ausmus Livestock. This donor is one that has unlimited potential to push our breeding operation to another level and besides how often is there an opportunity to purchase the sister of “NOT TONIGHT”!! We will use Bernie’s words to help describe this female: “We have flushed her, we have kept numerous daughters, and her males averaged $10,000. The genetic value alone on this offering is nearly priceless. Her sire and uncle are responsible for more major show winners and high rent checks cashed than any other sibling stud bucks in the country. Visually is impeccable, and is easily the most impressive mature donor we have ever offered in a sale. This is a program changing female of immense magnitude!” I don’t think we can say it any better, thank you Bernie!

SIRE: Not Tonight

DAM: Morgan Donor - Swipe Right

Tag 2034 is a donor doe raised from the heart of our ET program a couple of years back. This NOT TONIGHT daughter carries the density and power that her pedigree promises. Her dam is from the heart of Allan Morgan’s program and has been an incredible piece in our operation. She has made females who were slated to “never leave the farm”. Tag 2034 is a massive hipped, round caged female that should stamp out offspring capable of playing on any stage in the country.

Ten head of confirmed pregnant recipient does from the heart of our embryo transfer program. We have strategically mated these donors with the sires that we believe provide the highest upside for ourselves and our bred recip investors.

DAM: Shooter

1031 is one of the three yearlings that came home with us from Gustine. When we purchased this donor, we believed she possessed the attributes to create stud bucks. This donor stuck out as the stoutest in the pen, even at Allan Morgan’s. She was the most massive stifle to stifle as well as the most explosive backed doe in the group. This future donor handled like she was on a drench protocol even as a yearling in the Texas heat. A year later she performed exactly as intended producing a pair of buck kids who now stand in our buck stud named Goose and Maverick.

SIRE: Pandemonium

Goose Maverick

Two flushmate brothers who share the same genotype but portray two sought after phenotypical packages. PRETTY AND POWER!

If your does need elevation throughout their front 1/3, a long GOOSY neck, while matching it with wicked rib shape GOOSE should be your top choice!

DAM: Morgan 1031 (Swipe Right x Shooter)

Flip the script with MAVERICK, this dude is stout, big coming at you, big ended, with a monstrous back! If he can’t implement shear power into your females I don’t know who can! Tack all this together with their genetic script and lookout! Pandemonium on the top side with a standout in our donor pen on the bottom!

9th

Overall Ohio State Fair Open Show 2024

MORGAN 1065

SIRE: Pulse Rider

DAM: Sea Bass’ Sister TWSS x OMT x 511

A pair of yearling flushmates that we purchased from deep inside of Allan Morgan’s keeper pen. We love Allan’s genetics and these donors have made a huge impact on our program. Tags 1065 and 1066 have generated females we are currently flushing and wethers that have racked up countless wins. The genetic power and makeup of these females’ is that of royalty. These donors possess the same DNA as the legends “Sea Bass” and Spencer Smith’s buck “PayPal” which is exactly what we felt that we needed to implement in our breeding program. We get excited about pedigrees that include proven females on the bottom side with high levels of predictability generating high quality offspring time after time.

BOUNDS 3127

SIRE: Daddy Issues

DAM: 4th Overall Doe Iowa (McNeer)

We acquired this doe from the Bounds crew with intentions of making her a standout show doe and then transitioning her career to the donor pen. Bounds hit it out of the park receiving 3rd Overall Wether Dam at the 2023 Ohio State Fair. Our team is proud to have a female of this caliber in our donor pen from the Bounds/Mcneers.

SIRE: Tag Team

DAM: Homeslice x 1785

Tag 2385 is A yearling purchase from the FSG DONOR PEN and her genetic script has enough value on its own. Tag Team daughters are be sought after like no other while going back to a female who has produced big for the Fledderjohanns.

This female comes equipped with more than enough stoutness while still being a functional and flexible option. Tag 2385 has a dynamic look from the side that makes her easily versatile when selecting the buck to match her with!

SIRE:

DAM: Poncho

Possibly the biggest footed female we have on the farm. This blackhead female is unique as she is a stout enough where she needs to be yet pretty and refined to make her still look like a lady. One we feel has lots of generating power to make them dynamic from the side with all the extras of foot size and hair. We look forward to continue utilizing Tag 3096 to make some unique pieces in our program with our cutting-edge buck battery.
