Full sister Merry at 2 years.

I have several half sisters to Manolo, and they are sweet, moderately framed, and so incredibly easy to milk.  Manolo is also easy to handle, deep bodied, especially for a 2 year old.  He is also polled.

 Freight Train at 2 years.

We frequently reminisce about how much we loved Blythe, and I am so glad we kept this kid.  Freight Train carries on so much of her length and depth, and hopefully her udder!  He was enormous at birth, and as we have yet to keep a daughter from Blythe, thought we'd better keep him around.  He does have significant scurs, as I delayed too long in disbudding with the hopes that he was polled.

Third time's the charm on this breeding: finally, we have a doe from this cross!  Like all the Bon daughters, she is long, strong, dairy, and smoothly blended.  Her udder is very correct, productive, and easy to milk out.  Madeira suffered some mineral allocation issues before her first kidding, which has affected her development.  Sold 2019.

  Magnolia as a milking yearling.

I admit that a broken sundgau catches my eye, helping Magnolia to remain a keeper.  This doe kid combines two lines that I think are incredibly strong--longevity and balance from Medesima, a beautiful udder in Magdalene, uphill and smooth topline from KJ, lovely balance to the head from Singed, and elegance from Legs.  Others were also impressed with this doe, as she won her dry leg as a junior kid, and then placed 3rd in the Junior Kid class at the 2017 ADGA National Show.  Magnolia has freshened with a very high, tight, and correct udder. Sold 2019.

 Javotte at 2 years, first freshener.

Javotte is an outcross, hoping that my M line and the Chateau Briant J line would combine.  She is incredibly deep and surprisingly wide, though she is one of my smaller does.  She was born several pounds lighter than her twin brother and was sold as a kid, and returned to us as a dry yearling after we lost her full sister, Jinglebob.  I anticipate that she will continue to improve over time, which was confirmed by her high appraisal of 89 as a 2 year-old first freshener!  In 2017, her udder continues to shine, winning BUIS at the WY Fuzzy Show.  Sold 2018.

    Jacquard, 2 years old, 2nd freshening

Jacquard was an exciting addition from Maine who I sold and has returned. I was very impressed with both her sire's and dam's structure, style, and performance. Her dam, Jovial, was 4th place yearling milker at the 2011 National Show, then as a 2 year-old, finished her permanent championship and also appraised 91 EEEE.  Her full sister, GCH Chateau Briant's Joyanna finished her championship at age 2, and appraised 2-02 EVEE 89.  Jacquard has a lot of length and height. Thank you Phil and Bob Cassette for breeding this beautiful doe!  A very tightly attached udder, with ideal medial.  Jacquard provided us with her daughter, Dawnwind Magnificent Javotte, who remains in the herd. 

Show Results: 5x1st, 1xJrGCH

Lily as a first-freshening 2 year-old.

Lily's beautifully wide and flat rump is a standout in our herd.  She belonged to a local 4-Her since she was a kid, and we are happy to have her back.  Lily is very sweet-tempered and easy to handle.
