Mossy Rock PA Royalty
Dam: wonderland GJ Heiress Paris
Sire: Potting Shed HC Asher
Gold w/ Brown eyes
Royal is a very welcome addition. I have admired both her dam since Brynne (Mossy Rock) picked her up and was originally hoping for a buckling off of this breeding...and along came Royal! Shes so perfect in her tiny little package.
We love this little girls easy grace and "better than you" attitude!
Dam: Paris is a Long bodied petite dairy doe who freshened with an extremely promising high tight udder and long well placed teats. Her sire is Camanna OMF Gold Jackpot, who has consistently improved mammaries on his daughters
Dams full sister: Wonderland GJ Versace Bling (her full sister from a previous year) placed Reserve Grand Champion in Salmon Arm in a very competitive group of Nigerians as a yearling FF. She had impressive production for a FF, and is reported to be very easy to milk out with soft udder texture and plump, easy expressing teats with large orifices, as well as a high, well attached rear udder
Sire: Potting Shed HC Asher's dam is Potting Shed MM Ashley. This tiny doe has always been a powerhouse milker, but she really went over the top with production in her 4th lactation (see weights below). She holds long and steady and is difficult to dry off. She milked through her second and third lactations without a rest. She is dairy to the extreme visually and to the touch, with a beautiful mammary system - a high and wide rear udder, nice sized teats, and is reported to be very easy to milk, with fantastic udder texture. She classified VG 86 as 2nd freshener, and has produced some gorgeous, milky daughters. Ashley's dam Maxie (EX 90 as a 4th freshener) took Grand Champion at the 2017 Canadian East National Show and is a super strong milker in her own right.
These are "spot check" milk records from Ashley's 4th lactation (2019):
DIM LBS of milk
46 7.1lbs
83 9.7lbs
135 7.9lbs
Asher's sire is Rosasharn MM Hermit Crab (same as our Potting shed HC Sunbear!) , a US import from the renown Rosasharn Farm. Hermit Crab classified VG87 as a yearling. His dam is SG Rosasharn HB Kujira 4*M, who is an incredibly impressive doe across the board. She's described on the Rosasharn website as "a super heavy milk producer, with a well attached udder and very long, whole-hand teats!". Kujira spent her early years as a family milker and thus wasn't on milk test, but came back to Rosasharn later in life and immediately took the #1 spot for production on the ADGA Top Ten List in 2014, milking 1510lbs in 305 days in her 6th freshening. She LA'd EEEE 91 as an 8 (almost 9) year old, and the photos of her below are taken as a 12 year old 11th freshener! This doe's longevity and productivity is truly something amazing.
Hermit Crab's paternal graddam Rosasharn TL Queen Bee is another powerhouse doe. She's a finished Grand Champion, LA'd VEEE 91, and is a very strong milker. She was on the ADGA and AGS Top Ten List for production in 2011, producing 1180lbs in just 233 days, and had a high test day of 8.4lbs.
Hermit Crab's full sister Rosasharn MM Mermaid Muriel milked 860lbs in 300 days in her first freshening.
