SWEETEA's dam had pretty much perfect conformation with a lovely topline, strong feet and legs, a super snugly attached udder and long, easy to milk teats. Her only fault was that her production was not as high as I like. I bred her to Thunder in hopes of getting the perfect conformation and small size of Gloria with the heavy milk production of Thunder's incredible dam. SweeTea has followed her dam in size (she's tiny!) and conformation, and she has greatly improved capacity over her dam! Good girl! She is very easy to milk as well with large orifices, soft udder texture, well placed and sized teats (she is a family favorite to milk). The main thing I would change about her is a smoother foreudder as she has a foreudder shelf/small pocket. SweeTea is a very petite doe. SweeTea lives up to her name with a super sweet, kind face and eye and loves her people. Her conformation is also very nice with a strong brisket, deep, well sprung barrel, strong, correct legs and a long, dairy neck.
