Antiquity Oaks Shirley Jackson 4*D

No longer retained in herd

2 year old Shirley

DOB: May 2, 2005

AGS (D-28810)

Shirley is out of one of our best milkers. She is a very long and level doe with sturdy feet and legs. In 2005 she consistently placed at the end of the line at every show we attended. Just as we had decided that Shirley's future would not be in shows, we were asked to bring a few extra junior does to a show in 2006 to be secure in sanctioning the breed, and Shirley was brought along as "insurance" - not because we thought she would win. Shirley blew us away when she went grand champion junior doe in one of the rings, although because it was an ADGA show and she was not ADGA registered, she did not receive the leg.

The udder on this girl did not disappoint - and as a first freshener, she really surprised us! She's earned her one-day star at only 25 days fresh, but since we were milking about ten goats at the time of her freshening, we quit milking her earlier than we would have otherwise. In 2007, we'll definitely see what type of longevity this girl has for production. She is easy to milk, although her teats could be more plumb.
