Little Wishes Cocoa Puffs GCH/Best Udder

Baby came to Florida already bred to our buck, Throne...and heavily so!  She surprised us with her first litter of quads!  Two does and two bucks.

Historically, we have leaned towards the "brick house" build of dairy goat, so our retaining decision was made easier as the kids grew.  Crier, compared to her sister, is much larger boned and heavier bodied so we chose her as our keeper!  As she matures, she has greatly reminded us of her maternal ancestors especially Cocoa, but with several improvements.  She's also sweet and curious.

Crier has freshened with probably the best Throne udder we've seen so far!  It is so socked on, you can't rock it.  She is adequately productive (produced a single kid) and super easy to milk with nice, large teats, open orifices and supple texture.  I love the division of her halves and her strong medial and lateral attachment.  Her fore is long, smooth and has no pocket at all.
