Shadow is a half sister to Nutmeg and promises to be just as nice.  These pictures really do not do her justice.  We had to part with her dam, 'Arthur' in 2011 which was really hard, but being able to keep this lovely doeling from her made it a little bit easier.  Arthur is an excellent milker with tons of capacity.  Shadow's sire is also from a great line of milkers.  Shadow has lovely conformation with wide chest, strong feet and legs, and lots of body capacity.  She also has very nice breed character. Shadow freshened with a lovely little udder.  It is very well shaped and has EXCELLENT attachments.    Her teats are very easy to milk for a yearling ff and she is giving a lot for her size and age.  See bottom of page for pictures of her udder at just a few days fresh.
