Phoenix is a wide, powerful and correct doe. As a kid, she showed tremendous depth and levelness over her topline from the start. She has proved herself in the show ring in 2013 as a kid winning Overall Champion Junior Doe in Show at the Litchfield County 4-H Fair, Terryville Fair and Goshen Fair as a kid. As a dry yearling this past year (2014) she again did not disappoint by winning Best Junior Doe in Show once again at the Litchfield County 4-H Fair, she also took Junior Reserve Grand Champion at the Northeast Classic Dairy Goat Show (also known as the Big E open show). As an older doe Pheonix continued to develop tremendous depth and width as well as retaining her very correct general appearance, especially the strength of pastern.

We have been struggling to get Phoenix bred but finally have several years she has been confirmed bred for 2017. We are really impressed by her udder and production, she has also already milked off virtually all of her excess weight from being dry so long. At the 2018 ADGA National Show she was awarded the Recorded Grade High 305 Milk and High 305 Butterfat awards with her first freshening lactation record. Her daughter Arkham also earned her dry leg in style going Best Junior Doe in Show at four months old.
