TRILLIUM - I waited for this doe for a long time! Her dam, Rosebud continues to give us many beautiful bucks but was gracious to give us this one beautiful girl.  I have always wanted a buckskin MiniNubian. Now here she is! And what a doe! She has WONDERFUL conformation, with a smooth, level top-line, strong feet and legs, tons of body capacity with a wide chest. She has nice breed character although her ears could be little softer and wider.  To top it all off, Trillium freshened with an absolutely stunning udder.  Socked on TIGHT and very capacious.  Her teats are correctly placed and well shaped.  See her updated 2011 udder pictures toward the bottom of this page.  We retained both of her 2010 bucklings out of Star.

Trillium's sire, Grant

Pictures of Trillium...

Trillium as a baby (these were just too cute - I couldn't pick just one!):

'Trilly' at about three months old.

Trillium as a dry yearling. 

Summer '09 v-show pictures (she did NOT want to cooperate for the side picture!):

Just for fun...

Fall '09 v-show pictures.  As soon as you put the collar on her, she immediately looks worse than in real life!  She is such a pretty, correct doe that these pictures do not do her justice.  They do show her rich, unclipped color though.

Trillium's large, correct, 1st freshening udder.

Trillium's Summer 2010 V-Show pictures (unclipped).  Sadly she got mastitis about 2 weeks into her lactation, so her production was waaay down for these pictures.  And, like her dam, she is NOT photogenic and looks horrible in pictures compared to real life.
