Our Sr. Doe's
1st Generation
MilkMaidRanch P Aruba
Aruba is my favorite doe, one I'll never sell. I have a rule(which are meant to be broken) that I don't milk a first freshener. When I weaned her first kid who was Gaston(now lives with Linda Sennott in OK), I was very happy with her udder. So much so that I decided to milk her. I was elated how she took to the milk stand from the first time. Her dam is the Alpine doe on the "Dev. Mini-Alpine's" page, Serenade. As you look at the pictures of Aruba's udder and the attachment on her hind end you'll see why I love this girl. Where the hair swirls is the attachment. She also has passed it onto her daughter, Honolulu. She was bred July 1, 2010 to Don Juan(Niger) for the last week of Nov. kids. This will put her kids at the 1st gen again for breeding back to a full blooded Nigerian. I wanted his lines in my Mini-Alpines.

Montego Bay is Aruba's niece and has a similar attachment to Aruba. I have to say I tend to like her udder as it's rounder. She was also milked as a first freshener and a doll in the stand. I can't wait to see her kids by Nash. The photo of her udder is as a first freshener in 09. Wonderful for hand milking. The photo on the left is as a weanling. |

La Brie came to us in July of 2010 from Ted & Linda Adams AFF Herd in Wilhoit, AZ. What a nice doe she is, very easy to work with and her foreudder is wonderful. She was bred to Joel on July 30th for Dec kids. These pictures were taken the day after she arrived so she is still guant from the 2 day trip. Her Alpine lines are AZ Apache Valley & Pearl Valley while her Nigerian lines are from Lost Valley, Twin Creeks and Goodwood(a favorite of mine). She is being milked every other day and giving a half gallon. The heat has hit us with high himidity so her milk has dropped back. I have to say she has the best tasting milk I've ever had.

Tasha is such a wonderful doe. Her first freshening was in Jan. of 2010 and twined with a buck kid(The Boss) and doeling(Carol King). The Boss is living with Stacey Sturdevant in MO. Carol is retained for my breeding program. I've milked her and she took to the milkstand as if she was always in it. She is not for sale till I get more doe kids from her. She is bred to Nashville for Fall kids. |
