Essie is super correct....long, dairy, level with a beautiful front end
assembly. She blends smoothly throughout and has a lovely level rump.
She is wide in the chest floor and escutcheon and stands on very correct
feet with deep, strong pasterns. Essie's dam, Potion, is a
littermate sister to our herdsire, Heart Throb. She finished her
championship this summer as a 2 year old. Potion excels in mammary, much
like her dam, Luvs. Essie's granddam, Luvs, appraised 91 EEEE at
appraisal this summer. Essie's sire, Master of Disguise, has some lovely
first freshening daughters in the Jen-Mae-Ka kids herd all excelling in
width and mammary. Master is out of the lovely 2016 ADGA National
Champion, Elusive.
What a difference a year makes! Essie matured into a lovely, smoothly
blended dry yearling. She was 1X RGCH Jr. Doe at the Mid-MN Classic. I
just love looking at this doe every time I pass her pen!
Essie was a very BAD dry yearling...the day
after we cleaned the barn in July she opened her pen and let all the bucksinto her pen...and ended up bred to her brother and fresh in early
December...not what I had planned for this lovely doe. She freshened
easily on her own with a beautiful well-attached mammary and tons of
milk. While certainly not what I call "fresh" for our June linear and
shows, she definitely held her own and continued to milk extremely well
during our summer heat and Canadian wildfire smoke.
Essie appraised 2-03 87 VVVV when she was 6 months into her
lactation. She placed well at the summer shows.
Essie is one of my favorite does. I loved her as
a first freshener and she just got better as a second freshener. Not a
huge doe, Essie is extremely correct throughout...from her long dairy
neck to her smoothly blended shoulders, to her level topline and
exceptional feet and legs. She also excels in mammary with a capacious
udder that has a long extended fore and a beautiful high arch in her
rear. She also knows how to milk with a 3600#+ 1st lactation to a
projected 4000#+ 2nd lactation!!
Essie will be bred to Max for March
kids. 1st doe will be retained. $700 |
