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 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 Big E. 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.

After years of struggling to get Phoenix bred due to what we know realized in longer heats and some extra condition due to the extended dry period, Phoenix freshened in 2017. We are really impressed by her correct, well attached mammary system 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. She also made the 2018 Top Ten list for Saanen Grade butterfat. Her daughter Arkham also earned her dry leg in style going Best Junior Doe in Show at four months old in 2018 and freshened with a very correct mammary system. Phoenix unfortunately fought a case of mastitis losing function in half of her udder, but will remain here as a valuable brood doe.
