"Candy" - Green Gables SOF Penny Candy 2*P

2023 was coming to a close and we REALLY weren’t going to add another goat … BUT … 🧡

We are still bummed about losing our favorite Mini Nubian buck, Marky Mark, before we could even breed him, and we spent months scouring 2024 waitlists for his relatives. So when Eliya made Penny Candy available, there was no way we could resist – she’s Mark’s dam! Her topline is a tiny bit weak at the chine, and her rear udder could use a little more height & arch, but she is gorgeous and acts so much like Mark! She earned her milk star in butterfat in her 3rd freshening and produced more milk than previous years , but was just a little short to earn her milk weight star. 

Penny Candy’s barn name at GG is “Penny” but since we already have a doe with that name, we’re calling her “Candy.”
