2*M AR Wild Wind Farm R Jewel Box 2*D

Jewel has matured into such a beautiful doe – great conformation and milk production too! The pictures 

Jewel Boxdirectly below show her 3rd freshening udder which continues to improve. She’s not yet clipped and is still nursing kids part-time in this photo, but they show how nice her udder is looking. Her rear udder is high and well attached while the fore udder blends smoothly. She has good teat placement and they’re nicely sized, she milks out easily, and her udder is very soft and pliable.

In addition to producing lots of milk, Jewel also did terrific in Linear Appraisal as a 3rd freshener – scoring an 89! Since she’s only a third freshener, that’s really fantastic.

Second Freshening – as a second freshener, Jewel’s udder really starting to look amazing, and her milk production went way up. She earned her milk production stars in both ADGA and AGS as a 2nd freshener and her first year on test!

As a first freshener, Jewel showed great potential, and we love how she has developed.
