Longvu LaManchas Milking Does
We maintain
a small dairy herd of 6 to 8 milkers
throughout most of the year. Spring is a peak season with new
milkers freshening out and many kids to feed, so we will carry 12 or
more milkers up to early summer. Our normal schedule has us
milking first fresheners through most of the winter, giving them a long
first lactation. The does outlined below represents the milking
herd and show string.

"Liddy" is still going strong on
great feet and legs. She has a level top line and rump and shows
a lot of strength and dairyness. While her udder is starting to
show signs of 10 lactations with 7 of them well above 2000 lbs, she is
still competetive in the show ring. Her daughters always carry
the same great general appearance traits and productivity. Her
appraisal at age 7 certainly reflects the longevity of excellence in
this line.

"Upsie" is strong on her feet and legs with good length of body and
excellent width throughout. She freshened with a
very high, tight udder featuring a smooth fore, great area of
attachment and properly placed teats. She has filled out nicely as she has matured and sports a very capacious and well
attached mammary system.

"Vipa" demonstrates the best qualities of her dam and brings in the
improvements we hoped to see from her sire. She is longer in bone
with straighter front legs than her dam, and demonstrates the same
sharpness, angularity, and width from Harmony. She then freshened
with a beautifully stapled on udder, featuring plumb teats, an
excellent medial,
and exceptional fore and rear attachments. Vipa finished the show
season with two straight Best-in-Show ribbons at two of the largest
shows we had attended last year. This year, Vipa was the 12th place 4 year old at the 2010 ADGA Nationals.

Hearts
was a sharp, angular kid and has matured into a clean upstanding
yearling milker. She has a wonderfully attached mammary system
with a smooth fore, strong medial, and well placed teats. Hearts
stands on strong feet and legs and with her second freshening, she has
deepened out into a powerful milker. Hearts is presently
for sale, due only to a surplus of two-year old milkers.

Ether is long and sleek with sharp withers and a long graceful neck.
She stands on great legs with a naturally wide stance showing a
high, open escutcheon. Her rump is wide and long. We were
thrilled to get such an upstanding young kid out of Sera and, given her
dam's mammary system and her sire's consistent improvement in mammary
systems, it will be exciting to watch her freshen out next spring.

Lotus has a long, wide flat rump with a wide high rear
attachment. She is
long bodied with sharp withers and a long lean neck. She is very
correct on her rear legs and has a great front end. She is deep
in the heart with a nice width in the front. Her mammary system
is well attached and capacious for a yearling first freshener.
Lotus placed 14th at the 2010 ADGA Nationals in Louisville, Kentucky.
