Josie is one of the cutest little goats I have ever seen. Part of it is her personality. Her her big brown eyes and adorable face just add to her charm. Jostan, my 12-year-old son, selected Josie to be his 4H goat when she was a newborn kid. I am more pleased with his selection as she matures. Wow, this girl can make milk!  Josie is easy to milk and has persistant production.  We finally got Josie in the show ring in 2011 and she started off by winning Grand Champion in a large show and the following weekend she won a second grand champion as well as a reserve.  The judges LOVED her mammary system, especially the height of her rear udder attachment.  Judges also commented on Josie's balance and dairy character.  Josie is a permanent member of our farm family.

ChaCha has always been a favorite but never made it into the show ring until 2011.  In her very first show, she promptly won an ADGA reserve grand champion award in a big Nigerian Specialty Show. Although stretched too much in her photo above, you can see her nice topline, great extension of her brisket, excellent legs, and very nice combination of depth, width, and length of body. ChaCha has perfect teat size, placement, and lovely medial division. Her udder attachments are also excellent but could be a little smoother blended into her body. Judges commented on her very nice dairy character and all eight judges put ChaCha at the head of her class. We have always loved ChaCha and are happy to see she is admired in the show ring as well. 

Luna came back to me in the fall of 2010 after leaving at 10 days of age as a bottle baby.  Already, she is a favorite with her loving personality and gentle disposition. This lovely white lady (with pinto colored skin) is very dairy and has a beautiful front end assembly and uphill stance and wedge shaped body.  Luna is plenty long and level and stands on very good feet and legs.  In her first show weekend, she won an ADGA Grand Champion leg, despite being a brat in the show ring.  Luna has perfect texture to her mammary system and is easy to milk out, despite her smaller teats.  Although she is a mature doe, this is only her second lactation after starting her life mostly as a special pet.  Her mammary system shows a lot of promise with its well placed teats, nice medial division, and good attachments and capacity.  I am so happy to have Luna as part of my herd and part of my group of lovely Crescendo daughters.  Luna and two of her half sisters were awarded the top honor in the "get of sire" class at the big Nigerian 2011 Specialty Show in Salem, OR.
