Christabelle is one of the longest does I have ever seen. She is long, level, smoothly blended, with great depth of barrel, brisket extension, spring of rib, and she excells in general appearance. She is very level from hips to pins, even though her rump looks a bit steep in this picture- she was just out of the ring and didn't want to stand still any more, so  we took what we could get. She has very good capacity, a strong medial, a very high and wide rear udder, with increased fullness in the foreudder. While her teats could ideally be larger, she has very open orifices, making her quite easy to milk. Her extremely friendly personality has made her a farm favorite, and she passes on that sweet personality to her kids.  Christabelle was not fresh at the time of our linear appraisal session, so we do not have a score for her.

Sky looks very much like her sister, with a little more power. She has a high escutcheon, a nice front end assembly,is very full in the crops, length from hips to pins, and good depth of barel.  Even though she was dam-raised, she could easily be mistaken for a bottle baby, as she still tries to jump up in my lap- which at her current size is a bit uncomfortable.  We are very pleased with her udder- so far, she has accumulated eleven best udder awards over some very tough competition!  She has lots of attachment all around, a high rear udder and a smooth foreudder with a strong MSL and nice large plumb teats, and milks down to almost nothing.  She has perfect milk stand manners and if, by some strange happenstance, another doe gets to be milked first, Sky will loudly let you know that this is NOT okay, and should not happen again in the near future (if ever).

With both of Infinity's parents being finished champions, we hoped that she would do as well in the show ring as they did.  We've finally gotten official confirmation that she has followed in her parents' footsteps, and is now a finished champion herself.  Her background is full of milkers, and she was able to earn her AR milking star as a first freshener.  She has a lovely udder, with great capacity  and nice all around attachments.  She stands incredibly wide in the back with nice angulation and has good brisket extension.  We'd like to see a little more flatness of bone in those shoulders, and a higher ear set, but other than that, she's a very nice little doe.

Raven's udder is all I was hoping for and more.  These udder pictures were taken less than two weeks into her second freshening.  She has a very wide and high rear udder, a smothly blended fore, plumb teats, and wonderful texture.  In addition, she walks on very strong feet and legs, has great spring of rib, smooth blending, lots of femininity, and she levels out on the move. This little doe isn't terribly people friendly, but she's getting better all the time, and her kids have all been very friendly. She has gotten so much better that we're convinced she would be a total lap goat had she been handled as a kid.

I waited through several sets of triplet bucks to get Moon, and even then she was the only doe from a set of quads. I definitely think she was worth the wait! Moon is one of our smallest milkers, but that doesn't stop her from doing her best to keep up with Sky in the milk bucket.  On a one day test at the AGS National Show, she produced 4.1 lbs of milk- an incredible amount of milk for a doe that can't be much over 40 lbs. herself! At the time, she was under 17 inches tall, and managed to earn a spot on the Top 10 list for one day milk test! The next shortest doe was three inches taller than Moon, and it's too bad we weren't able to do another milk test in 2009 to see how she would have done.  She stands on a great set of feet with exceptionally strong pasturns, has good capacity both in body and udder, and carries a high wide udder that does not move when she walks. She has tight elbows, with exceptionally flat bone and good sweep to her ribs, along with very dairy skin. She is one of my favorites on the farm, being not only a great milker but also having an outstanding personality.

Ali is the doe I always pull out for show and tell when someone asks what does a very dairy doe look and feel like.  Her udder is high, very well attached, with the strongest MSL in our herd and near ideal teat placement. She is quite capacious, and easy to milk with those nicely sized plumb teats.  She has lots of dairy character, with that long lean neck, flat bone, soft pliable skin, proper sweep to her ribs, and angularity.  On one day milk test as a first freshener, she produced 4.1lbs of milk to easily earn her milking star. As a third freshener, she produced quintuplets, which seemed to take a lot out of her, getting her off to a slow start in the milk bucket.

Several years ago I had been in line to get a doe kid out of Zenith, but there weren't enough doe kids to go around. When Tamara offered me a chance to pick up this Zenith daughter (a repeat of the breeding I had wanted a doe kid out of), even though I needed another doe like I needed a hole in my head, I couldn't turn down the opportunity. Rain freshened with a very nicely shaped udder- high and wide, with a broad area of attachment, strong MSL, and super easy to milk teats.  At her first show as a first freshener, she was beat out for Best of Breed by her six year old dam who is still going VERY strong.
