One Fine Acre - 2023 4H Steer Project Update

[OneFineAcre]

We have 2 more does kidding next week
They were bred the same day and day 147 is Monday
Took this pic today
Someone on another forum wanted an udder pic of a FF
I kinda like this udder
This Dee out of Taffy and Fortunato

Dee is looking good!
Do you have any Taffy FF pics to compare?
Looking like she has her mommas test placement

Isaac babies are just around the corner

Youmg Lady you are very observant and have obviously paid attention to my goats
You are correct
Very similar to Taffy and that's not a bad thing
Taffy is 3rd best in that regard behind Clarabelle and Zamia
But Taffy is a little better than Ginger so hopefully down the road Dee will be a little better than Taffy

I've liked Taffy for a long time.
She is one of my favorites in your herd.

Remember when I asked you who you feel are your top 3? I knew she would be on that list.

She will get her turn in the spotlight for sure. I don't see how she could not end up as a finished champion.

This year could be her year
I do think that
Could be Gimger"s year too
She's will be 8 years old
Freshened 7 times
She's long and her back is as level as a yearling
I've noticed that judges like aged does who show strength and longevity
And Ginger did win a GC under Evin Evans
If you only win one the fact that it was under Evin means a lot
But Taffy is better so this year may be hers and Gingers may be next year as a 9 year old
Saw a 10 year old win the open show at NC State Fair

I'm on my phone and can't access the pic but go to my website and go to the Sr Does Tab and look at
Taffys pic
She was a FF in that pic
Look at her depth and body capacity
Look at her body length
Look at her long neck
Now that is a dairy goat
And I just took that pic when she was standing in the yard

Dee's ligaments were softened this morning and completely gone this afternoon so we are officially on kid watch

I cleaned stalls today and she is in one
Baby monitor is on

Our girls have always been so polite in kidding at a decent hour

Being her first time she may not have gotten the message
