Maggie has become one of the mainstays in this herd. At the age of 8, she finally deepened in the barrel and got over that "immature" look. We have discovered that our Emma line just takes a little longer to mature, but we like seeing does at the age of 6, 7 and 8 holding it all together and not broken down. What we have come to realize, is that Maggie is our most consistent brood doe. Took us long enough. She continually produces correct, dairy, pretty to look at offspring. Since we have 5 of her daughters in our herd, that must say something. She is a very dairy doe with beautiful breed character. She possesses a beautiful shaped, capacious mammary that is high and wide in the rear. I would like to see a little more extension in the fore as she does break a little, but I can live with that. She has become a very valuable member of this herd and we thank her for this everyday.
Maggie's daughters in the herd are Destiny ( EX90 VVEE), Fluerie, Storm, Sonny and Jordyn.

Last year at nationals, someone commented on Maggie as being a "dairy train". I took that as a compliment. Maggie is the epitomy of a "Dairy" goat. She milks, she shows, she cranks out some our most beauitful kids. She takes it all in stride. That is to us, the true meaning of a Dairy goat. |
