(2021) Echo freshened on Feb 8th with twins, a buck and a doe. Bred to Triumph this year, we are liking the results. We will retain the doe, buck kid is available. She is milking a steady 9-10lbs a day. She sure is an easy milker.
(2020) Echo freshened on Feb 12th with 2 does and a buck, fairly smooth kidding once she finally got serious. She had us going for about 10 days, looking like she was in early labor, we'd spend the day vigilant, then nothing... When she finally went, it was obvious she had been trying to expel a little doe kid that had died in utero, by my guess - about 10 days earlier. We are very pleased with the other doe and buck. They are our first River kids. Bree, the doe will join the herd, her brother went to a
4-H kiddo. She is already milking 8lbs a day 3 weeks fresh.
(2019) Echo was a dry Senior kid this year. Showed pretty good and got a good year of growing in.
(2024) Off to another good start! Echo was linebred this year to Legacy's buck. Looking to combine Echo's body type and strong production to Legacy's fantastic udder and rear legs! We'll be retaining her doe kid to evaluate the results. Update: Echo struggled to maintain weight this year while in milk. We opted to dry her off early to give her body a break and work on getting her minerals back up.
​
(2023) Echo came back this year as strong as ever! Easy kidding with 3 fabulous kids. 2 bucks and a doe. We are keeping the doe, she is quite a looker. Echo has trimmed down nicely and is milking a solid 11lbs a day.
(2022) This girl is taking a down year. Not gonna lie, kinda bummed about it. She picked a bad year to take off since we are finally getting a Linear Appraisal done. Been 3 years because of Covid. She put on some extra weight over winter, bred multiple times before settling and freshened late with 1 small buck kid. Really never fully came into her milk this year, she is only milking about 7lbs a day. Will dry her off early and get her bred early. ​
