Hope is our first 5th gen American doe that we retained.  She is soooo pretty and sweet.  She is a beautiful combination of her dam and sire in conformation.  Hope has a lovely topline, smooth blending, tons of body capacity, and stands on very correct feet and legs.  She has lovely breed character and a beautiful face.  Hope's dam, Grace, has a well shaped, soft udder with long, easy to milk teats and lots of very high butterfat milk.  Hope's sire, Star, also comes from great milking lines and Hope's udder is beautiful!  Her udder is high, wide and well shaped with a tight medial.  Her teats are actually overly long, but since she's pretty much perfect in every other way, I can work with long teats. *smile*  Hope is one of our smaller does and yet is milking extremely well - She is averaging 5# a day and peaks around 8#.

Hope is only for sale because we have to sell adults in order to be able to keep kids and not end up with hundreds of goats. :)  She is going instead of someone else because her teats make milking her harder than milking the other does - her teats are very large and her orifices are small.  Her daughter we have retained is very easy to milk with good length teats and large orifices.  We have two more Hope daughters we have retained that have not kidded yet.  We also have her 3/4 sister and two half brothers in the herd, so she is related to much of our herd already.
