What a wonderful surprise when
Gracie gave us triplets this year. We had already decided that this
would be her last pregnancy so we were excited when she gave us 2 lovely
does and a handsome buckling. We had planned to keep both of the
doelings but in order to cut our labor somewhat we finally made the
difficult decision to sell one and Mai Tai was our choice for our
keeper.
This is a very dairy little
doe...stylish, smooth and leggy. With MaiTai being one of our younger
does, we made the decision not to show her. The continued wildfire smoke
had bothered her and we didn't want to stress our younger kids but I
feel she would have done extremely well at the summer shows.
MaiTai continued to be a huge
favorite this summer. She is extremely stylish and correct...very level
over her topline, deep in the body with great spring of rib. She blends
smoothly over her shoulders and is very wide in her chest and back
through her rump and escutcheon. MaiTai reminds me very much of her
lovely dam when she was a young doe. She is our last Heart daughter and
his 2 first fresheners from this year both had outstanding udders so we
have great hopes for this young doe!
What can I say....she's still
one of my favorite does in the barn and she freshened with a stunning
mammary....she is stylish, dairy, level with a gorgeous mammary and milk
production that far exceeds her dam's milk production. Only a first
freshener she stood 2nd to the GCH doe at the Mid-MN Classic. She
appraised 86 GVVV at linear this summer and got a lot of extremely nice
compliments from the appraiser.
MaiTai will be bred to
Max for
February kids. 1st doeling retained.
