Jubilee is one of
our first Rebel kids to freshen and I'm not disappointed. She is
smaller and more dairy than her dam, but if my eye is correct, she
will have an equally nice mammary system. She was a very productive
first freshener with one of the herd's softest and most collapsible
udders. She did freshen a bit uneven that first time, which is reflected
in her udder photo below, but I have had some good luck evening
her out and I hope to see her more symmetrical next time around. Her second freshening still very uneven, and below I have done something I normally never do: the 2012 udder picture below is a reconstruction of what her udder might look like if it were not so uneven--really beautiful. While her udder is improved over her dam's in several ways, particularly foreudder extension, overall Jubilee is refined to the point of frailty, although her milk production does not reflect that. Because of the udder and production potential I see in her, I have retained her daughters by Hunk (Jubilation, 1 x Best Junior Doe in Show) and Hallucination (Banshee, still a tiny baby).
Show record:
1 x 1st, 1 x GCH Jr
(July, 2009, Tamara Taylor(AGS))
Kidding record: 2010,
single doeling by Hunk, retained; 2012, buck/doe twins by Hallucination, doe retained.
