2013 Lactation Now in Progress

Summer 2012:

It's becoming harder and harder to overlook Tyler now.  She is a stunningly beautiful doe with stunning milk production.  She gets better and better every year.  We think so highly of Tyler that we will, hopefully, keep a buckling from her next year.  But we are hedging our bet and keeping a doeling also.  One way or another we are going to get more goats like Tyler in our herd.

Summer 2011:

Sometimes it's easy to overlook Tyler.  She is quiet, does her job without causing (much) trouble, and hangs out with her friends.  It isn't until we look at our DHIR milk records that the true picture of her production appears.  As a two year old milker she is doing great!  We like Tyler enough to keep a daughter from her.  She also has sons working in Alaska and California.

Tyler has now earned her Superior Genetics title!

Summer 2010:

Yup, good looks and good milk production run in the family.  Tyler scored very highly on her appraisal and is milking like a trooper.  She is a very grown up young lady.  She loves her job and takes it very seriously.  She is definitely one to watch as she grows.

Summer 2009:

Tyler's mom, dad, and half sister all scored 91's on this year's linear appraisal and Tyler did quite well herself.  If her pedigree and good looks are any indication - this girl is gonna "WOW" us next year!
