Honey has matured into such a correct doe – I was thrilled when she scored an 89 in linear appraisal as only a third freshener. She also met the production requirements and earned her ADGA and AGS milk production stars as a second freshener. And, she earned her SG (Superior Genetics) designation! Great conformation and milk production too, I’m very happy with Honey!
Honey usually produces quadruplets or triplets each year, is a great mom, and seems to produce girls (always a good thing). And each year, her impressive udder just looks better. The photos below show how her udder has improved as she matured. The one below is of her 5th freshening udder:
The photo’s below are of her 3rd freshening udder:
