ROSEBUD is litter mate sister to a buck we used extensively in our herd, Country Dreams Charlie Brown. We were so happy with Charlie and his kids that we went back and bought two full sisters and his dam's sister (see Arthur). Rosebud is a very dark buckskin with frosted ears and muzzle and a few white markings. Her ears are pendulous and her nose is roman. She has a very smooth, level topline with an extremely flat rump. She has great body capacity and very strong feet and legs.  Rosebud is a good, steady milker giving 5-6 lbs of milk per day. Her udder is very well attached with a high, wide rear udder and super tight attachments all around. Her teats are well delineated and well placed. Rosebud's kids are always gorgeous with wonderful conformation and lovely personalities. Most of her sons have gone to breeding homes and we have retained 2 of her daughters for our herd. See her beautiful daughter Trillium who took GCH in the 2012 Summer V-Show, and Laurie.

Soakin' up the sun...  (photo taken shortly after milking)

Fall '09 v-show pictures  7 months fresh, unclipped, and no helper to set her up...

Rosebud 1 day after kidding with triplet bucklings.  These pictures show the nice globe shape to her udder that the other pictures don't allow you to see.  It is still very snugly attached and well shaped after 5 lactations:
