I really love this doe, as soon as she hit the ground sopping wet as a kid, I took one look at her and said "Yep, you are staying!" Moana is long bodied, very dairy with a nice brisket and front end. She freshened with a beautiful udder that is an absolute JOY to hand milk! Seriously, my favorite ever doe to milk. Add to that her wonderful hardiness, easy to maintain hooves, easy kidding and great mothering skills... she is darn near my perfect goat. Updated photos coming after she kids. Moana will be on DHIA milk test for 2020.

DHIA Milk Record

Please Note: ***We do not feed for performance.*** We like our does to be able to hold a steady eight month lactation in good body condition, without having to feed a super high calorie diet to sustain it or boost milk numbers. Our does have free choice grass hay, Chaffhaye twice a day and get a 1/2-1 cup of oats while being milked. A screenshot of our spreadsheet where we track current lactation data and targets needed to earn a milk star will be updated below, each month, after we get our results back from the lab.
