The Priscilla family forms a central part of our herd. In 1997, we purchased a first choice from Top Acres PR Pom Pom at the World Premier Sale. We selected Front Line Pom Poms Olivia from that choice. Olivia has been the core foundation for our Priscilla family. Later, we added to the family by purchasing Olivia's sister, Front Line Conquest Prom, at the 2004 World Premier Showcase sale. From a different branch of the Priscillas, we purchased Meadow Hill Dane Popcicle at the 2005 National Convention Sale in Beloit.

At age 10/01, Olivia is calved on January 10th with a Supreme heifer calf. Sadly, we had to put her down this spring - but her family remains!
With her first three daughters (Onyx, Odessa, and Opal), Olivia became a Superior Brood Cow - our FIRST! Olivia completes 5 generations of Superior Brood Cows in the Priscilla Family!

Olivia, sired by Betta Vue Emory Prelude,
has 3 milking daughters and an August '06 heifer on the farm. Scroll down for more information about her daughters and family. Her Dynasty son, Opie, is a sire-in-waiting at Alta Genetics.
Twinkle-Hill Dynasty Opie
The first Opie calves hit the ground in December 2006 and January 2007! We're excited to watch them grow and develop. For more information about Opie, click here.
We also worked with Olivia's sister by Conquest -
