The way the first day went was Rosie took
RGC in Rimg 1
Zamia took BOB in the
Champion Challenge
Rosie was GC in ring 2
We challenged with Zamia but judge stuck with Rosie for BOB
This was Rosie's 3rd leg so she is a finished champion
Clara Belle won her age group in both rings
Taffy was 2nd in both rings
Shea was 3rd in ring 1 and 2nd in ring 2
Cocoa was 3rd in ring 1 and I can't remember exactly where she was in 2nd ring but towards the bottom

If you show 3 rings of bucks you better have another pair of shoes because you are most likely to get your foot peed on :barnie


And for those of us who are allergic/sensitive to goat pee....you'd better bring your Benadryl and calamine lotion. I would walk out of the ring after showing bucks with the skin on my forearms red, blistered, and prickly from setting the guys up...over and over and over again. Even washing the bucks TWICE before showing you couldn't stop them from marking themselves and you unfortunately. Somewhere someone took a pic of me reaching under a buck at a most inopportune moment....eeek!

Sounds like ya'll are having a pretty good show! Congrats on all the rosettes with the gals. The guys will have their day another time.

Weekend is finally done
Today there was another ring of milkers and Jrs
Taffy took RGC and Zamia anther BOB
Zamia had best udder in ring 1 and 2
I was surprised she won today because we milked her out for best in show and best udder in show yesterday and she wasn't quite full
For Nigies at least this was some of the most consistent judging for milkers I have seen which I really like
The same doe won the 2 yo class in all 3 rings
Our Shea was 2nd once and 3rd twice
Clara Belle won 3 yo class in all 3 rings
The same doe won the 4 yo class in all 3 rings (she was GC in 2 rings)
Taffy was 2nd place 4 yo in all 3 rings ( 1 RGC )
Cocoa was 3rd place 4 yo in 2 rings ( don't know what the judge was thinking in the other ring who put her towards the bottom)
Rosemary was 1st place aged doe in ring 1 and 2 and GC in ring 2
We pulled Rosie from ring 3 simce she got her 3rd leg in ring 2
Ginger was 2nd place in 1 and 2 and 1st in 3 with Rosie out of the picture
We also pulled Molasses from the last 2 rings since she got her Dry Leg in the first ring
Everybody doesn't do that but they should
There was one breeder at this show in another breed who showed the same Jr in all 3 rings and she won in all 3
So there was only one leg earned
They may have blocked one of their own does from getting a leg
I think it's poor sportsmanship too and that's not what I'm trying to teach Rachel
