3 Kids Farm Whiskey Lullaby
Born 4/4/18
Light Tan Chamoisee with White Spot on Back and Blue Eyes
Lullaby is developing into a lovely doe. She is the daughter of Willow and our buck Whiskey. We think all she needs is a little time, she should continue to improve. Her first freshner LA score was VV+V 85. We plan on keeping this one around for a while and see what she can do!

Springwater DC Raspberry Pie
Born 3/13/19
Black and White
We happen to think Raspberry is a pretty cool little doe! And I think some folks would tend to agree as she has hit the ADGA Elite doe list, and won her Superior Genetics Award. She had a first freshening LA score of VV++83. Her dam, SG FMG DB&R Easy as Pie VEEE 90, is a 2018 breed leader for both protein and BF and an elite doe. At the 2019 National ADGA show she was also awarded the Total Performer Award. We are sincerely hoping this girl follows in her momma's footsteps!
3 Kids Farm JC Lilac
Born 4/14/19
Cream and White
This is another little doe, "Lilac", we are pretty excited about. She comes from some nice linage starting with her dam, Wee3Farms EP Hyacinth. Her granddam, GCH JRD Ranch CS Cherry Blossom, is a permanent champion and is LA scored at 90. She is shown from her most recent lactation and from her second lactation. I like this doe a bit more each year. She has a very nice well attached mammary system. Her linear appraisal score in 2022 was ++EV 83. We think this girl is just going to keep improving as she ages!

3 Kids Farm VW Helga
Born 3/23/19
Cream and White with Blue Eyes
This is one of our favorite maternal lines in our herd. Helga is very angular and has great depth and open ribbed, with a lovely well attached udder. We feel she is very solid herd building material. Her 2022 linear appraisal score was VEEE 89 We have retained a couple daughters out of her as well. We love our Helga!

Born 8/9/19
Black Swiss Marked with tan moonspots
Chanda is the first daughter we have freshened out of Isidore. We are very pleased with the sneak peak we are getting of his daughters. We love what we are seeing of her mammary as a first freshner. We look forward to seeing her mature

3 Kids Farm A Aria
Born 3/2/20
Black with white markings and frosted ears
Aria is on her 2nd lactation this year. She certainly has the will to milk and is a nice little doe. We have her dam in our herd, "Lullaby". We have certainly liked how her dam is maturing and hope to see similar things from Aria. Her linear appraisal score this year was ++V+ 82

3 Kids Farm 4&20 Blackbird Pie
Born 2/9/20
Black
Blackbird is a daughter of Raspberry Pie and Sired by Springwater Virigina Whiskey. This lil gal came to the party to milk, and she's doing a fine job of it. She is pictured below in her working clothes, not a show clip, not uddered up....but let me assure you she is pretty lil gal and has definitely earned the right to stay here. We believe she will get better as she ages.....watch this one. ;)

3 Kids Farm B Pie A La Mode
Born 4/2/21
White with Black Markings
This girl lives up to her name....because she's definitely the ice cream on top! She is more on the petite side, though we suspect she will continue to grow for a while as she is a yearling first freshner. She does have the genetics to milk and is doing just that! Her 2022 linear appraisal score was +VEV 86. This little gal is earning her keep, we will be watching what she does in upcoming years.

3 Kids Farm B Blueberry Buckle
Born 6/24/20
Black with Tan and White Moonspots
Ok, I'm not gonna lie.....I originally retained this doe because she "sparkled". But I sure don't regret it! We are pretty tickled with what she is developing into these days. She freshened the first time with just a single doeling, but she is putting it in the pail! We think future lactations she could really bump up her production even more. This one is promising in our opinion. He linear appraisal score as a FF this year was ++VV 86. Personally I think this one will do nothing but improve.

3 Kids Farm B Hilda
Born 4/27/21
Black with white marking and blue eyes
Hilda was a first freshner for us this year with a single buck kid. We tend to give first freshners in this situation a little grace, as it probably isn't a fair representation of what they are going to do as far as production. Even though she just had a single she is producing pretty well. She was fresh only a week at the time of linear appraisal and scored GVV+ 81. I suspect that score will go up on future lactations as she is given some time to mature. She is the daughter of a favorite here, Helga. We are going to hold onto this one. She has some nice genetics, she just needs a little time to live up to them.

Frehja comes from one of our favorite dam lines in our herd. Her dam is 3 Kids Farm VW Helga. Her linear appraisal score this year as a FF was VVE+ 85, and she has been a great little producer for us as well. We are very happy with this and think she is solid herd building material. This pretty girl is gonna stick around a bit ;)

Coffee is a first freshner this year. She is on the petite side, but does have some very nice qualities. She needs some maturity but I think will be a very nice doe
