"Bee" - JKShrunkTheKids HBR There You'll Be

Lady had arguably the nicest udder among our Mini Nubians last year and just barely missed earning her milk star by a handful of pounds. We’re confident she’ll earn it this year.

We paired Ron with Lady very intentionally. Lady is a refined, dairy doe with a high, tight udder, but she benefits from improvement in chest width, foreleg spacing, and rump structure. Ron brings proven skeletal width, depth, and levelness without coarsening, and his dam is a strong, wide doe with a very nice udder as well.

Bee is already showing exactly what we hoped for from this pairing. Both she and her brother are wider than Lady was at the same age, with more open foreleg spacing and a more level rear end. Her width reads early and structurally, not as a temporary growth phase.

She is a solid, rich brown doeling with excellent balance and presence. Jess dreamed about finally getting a nice, solid brown kid before Bee was born, and this girl truly feels like a dream come true.

Structurally, Bee shows moderate-plus chest width for her age, a level topline with good early strength, and a rump that is longer and more correct than her dam’s at the same stage. Her legs track straight with firm pasterns, and she carries a tall, open escutcheon indicating strong future udder potential.
