While I thought I was done bringing in does kids, I broke down when I realized SGCH des-Ruhigestelle Elendrea 9*M (03-06) EEEE 93 had a doe reservation open. Does it really get much better than National Show class winners, high appraisal scores, Top Ten and multiple lactation over 4,000lbs? I didn't think so either. We were ecstatic when we got the word that 'Drea once again had triplet does! We're also very happy with her sire Trademark who has a National Junior Champion daughter who milked over 4,600lbs as a first freshener!

While Ellie is still growing into her extremely long legs and bone pattern, we're pretty excited about this girl. We decided to freshen her as a yearling so she could get over her "awkward" phase all at once! While due to being young as a yearling and attending National Show as a two year old we have decided to dry her off early, we have high expectations to see her complete a full lactation in 2020.
