2016 USDA-DHIR Elite Doe - 99%
Peace joined our herd from Black Mesa Ranch in Arizona and we couldn't be more thrilled to have this amazing girl here! She comes from a long line of beautiful, productive animals. Her dam is named on the 2017 ADGA Top Ten Breed Leaders list as number 1 in butterfat production, making her a second generation Top Ten Breed Leader.
Peace is as sweet as her name suggests and on top of that, she was an elite doe in 2016 and scores very nicely on her linear appraisal. In addition, she did inherit fantastic production and typically peaks between 12 and 13lbs/day.
Her beauty has held up over time, too. In the photo above, she was over 7 years old!
Update Fall 2024: Peace kept looking worse and worse during her pregnancy this spring. She got to the point she could barely walk and we finally put her in a stall with a buddy so she wouldn't get jostled by the big herd. It's a good thing we did because for the last two weeks, she couldn't walk at all. We had to help her stand several times per day because she wasn't able to get to her feet. As the days crept along, we really thought that we might be losing our precious matriarch.
In spite of her trouble, Peace kidded just as easily as ever -- and we didn't even realize she was in labor until one of the two legged kids came running to the house shortly after we finished chores with the news that Peace had three babies on the ground!
Sadly, her little buckling appeared to have been born dead, but the two doelings were strong and feisty!
After kidding, Peace's health gradually improved and she is now living a very healthy, happy retirement with her two doelings, Mercy and Little Miss Peace, at her side.
We are so grateful to have her daughters and a son as integral members of our herd. Peace's impact will be a lasting one, for sure, and we wouldn't have it any other way!
