IVORY is a beautiful blonde doe with very nice conformation and tons of depth. She also has a wonderful udder. It is well attached with a well defined medial. She has great capacity - she milks around 5-7 lbs. Her udder is VERY soft and she has long teats that make her very easy to milk. The v-show judges always comment on her wonderful udder attachments and how well attached it is for her age. Her ears are fully pendulous (although a little short) and her nose is slightly roman. She is registered as an American MiniNubian with MDGA and TMGR. Ivory is a nice size at 25 inches tall. Ivory continues to surprise us each year - In 2008 Ivory gave us QUADS (3 bucks/1doe) but then in 2009 she outdid that record by having SEXTUPLETS!!!!! Unfortunately only one of those was a doe also, but they were all very nice kids. We retained her sextuplet doeling, Crissy, for our herd.
