2025 LA GVVA 83 as an 8 year old 7th freshener, 5 months into lactation. She scored V (very good) for front legs and feet. Her head, shoulder assembly, rear legs, and back all scored G (good plus). Her lowest category was her rump, scoring A (acceptable). She recieved a G in general appearance, V in dairy strength and body capacity, and A in mammary. At her age and my management/milking practices, I was very happy with the scores she received. I do believe she could have scored better in mammary if I had been more diligent about keeping her production up. She’s a dream to hand milk and has a lovely maternal personality, not just for her own kids but all kids born into the herd. She loves people and is a favorite in the herd.

Light came to us as a seven year old 6th freshener after weaning a single kid. She was a little wild on the milk stand, but sweet as pie. She was a diamond in the rough, and has turned out to be one of my favorite does. She has now retired at 9 years old due to a c-section that ultimately showed us her abdominal wall was too weak and thin to confidently sustain another pregnancy/birth. I’m devastated I never got a daughter from her, but two of her sons are still on the farm, ready to keep her genetics in the herd for years to come.
