Springwater BF Girls Gone Wild
Born: 6/26/17
Chocolate and White with Frosted Ears/Nose
This gorgeous doe is a new addition to our herd. We are super excited about what she brings to the table....very correct type and great milk production. Her first 2 milk tests as a first freshner she produced 4.0 lbs, 6.8% bf, 4.1% protein and 4.2 lbs, 7.0% bf, 4.7% protein! We are excited to see what she can do here for our herd!

Gold and White with Blue Eyes
So, we REALLY like this little doe...a lot. Not only is she shaping up to be a very pretty little doe, she puts the milk in the bucket! As a first freshner she peaked at 3.4 lbs and did a great job of maintaining those numbers. This year in her second lactation she peaked at 4.8 lbs per day and again did a great job of maintaining that production in her lactation. She also had a 9.4% Butterfat! This is a lovely doe, definitely a keeper in our eyes. Her LA score this year was VVVV 86

Ella is a first freshner this year. She has been a great little producer, starting her lactation at 4 lbs of milk per day. So far at 92 days in milk she has produced 287 lbs with a 6.6% BF and 4.2% Protein. Her mature equivalent at 305 days is 991 lbs milk, 70 lbs butterfat and 38 lbs protein. She had her first LA score this summer, results were V+++ 82. She definitely has the genetics to be a great little producer. Her sire is Springwater Virginia Whiskey. His dam, SGCH Pholia Farm RD Meet Virginia VVEE90, was a 2017 Breed Leader (Top Ten) for Butterfat and protein!

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! She is starting off as a first freshner on the right foot with her milk production and type. She has 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!

Light Tan with White Poll and Blue Eyes
This is another little doe, "Hyacinth", we are pretty excited about. We are thankful to Wee3 Farms for allowing us to add this gorgeous girl to our herd. Her dam, GCH JRD Ranch CS Cherry Blossom, is a permanent champion and is LA scored at 90. She is pictured as a first freshner. She just started her second lactation. She just kidded with a single but production is coming up this lactation. She has a very nice well attached mammary system. We think this girl is just going to keep improving as she ages!
