No longer retained in herd
DOB: May 2, 2005

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.
