Lumos was the results of a repeat breeding that produced her younger sister Just This Once and Once Upon a Time who did very well for us in the show ring and produced lovely daughters. While Lumos is a different style than them and not the tallest doe in the barn, she has plenty of width and depth throughout. She also is wide across her rump, has a level back and good correct set to her rear legs. She is also extremely angular and a productive doe. While her teat placement could be better, she really excels in width and strength of fore udder, and the shape of the rear udder arch.
Lumos did finish her championship with very limited showing, and has been working hard as a brood doe. I made some tough cuts to the herd and let some go, her daughter Nurmengard Castle is so similar in style to her! We look forward to seeing this dam line mature and have some exciting bucks to cross into this line over the next few years.
