MILKERS
SOLD: Black Betty: nice doe kid out of our Jupiter line. Her dam appraised 89 VEEV on Friday. She milks quite a bit and her only fault for us is her teats are closer to her legs than we prefer in the show string. We intend to keep her littermate sister to show this year. She kidded easily on 3-10 with a set of twins. She has been milked by hand and machine.
SOLD: Ophelia: Valley line doe. This is a smaller doe that makes a lot of milk for her size. She too has a bit of an outer set to her teat placement. She is incredibly affectionate and the appraiser from ADGA though she might be one to really see at 4 or 5 when she matures. This doe will make lots of milk and do it while not eating you out of house and home. She is mostly milked by machine but does not fuss about hand milking. She kidded with twins on 3-15 and no problems.
SOLD: Octavia: Valley line doe. Super fancy doe. Nice teat placement, good body capacity. She would make someone a fine starter doe for a show string or maybe even improve their overall doe quality. She loves to eat and comes in full most every day.
SOLD: Mulligan: I have been back and forth on this doe quite a bit. If numbers didn’t need to be cut, I’d likely retain her and show her myself. She’s got an absolutely beautiful head and looks like she’s going to be a stellar milker and show prospect. She’s from our Vicki line.
SOLD: Poet: This is a littermate to Baby who is staying here. It was a toss of the dice which should stay and which should go. She’s good at her job but doesn’t require a lot of petting and cuddling. She is due to freshen in the next couple of days. She is being sold as a doe only although if you contact me soon, I will consider a bred doe sale for a bit more—she will need to kid here as she is due very soon. She is a Vicki daughter.
SOLD: Whozit: Again with another super fancy and beautiful doe. She is due 4-18 and I would consider selling to an experienced home as a bred doe. She would need to move soon and with great care. This doe could be shown right away this spring. She knows her job and freshened last year with no issues. She’s an easy keeper and bred to a really nice buck.
