Avena was a fairly impressive milking yearling. We've only had 3 does in our dairy goat experience that have finished their Championship as a yearling milker: 1st was our 1997 ADGA Natl Jr.Champion Gazette EX92, 2nd was our 2008 & 2009 ADGA National Champion Evian EX94 (& Avena's dam), and the third is this girl, only she earned a Best In Show win at one of them as well! She's been 1st every time she's been shown as a milker, has produced over 2700 lbs. as a yearling, and was appraised VG89 (VVEE)! Exciting! Along with her dam Evian they placed 1st dam & daughter at both the CA State Fair & Sonoma County Fair. She looks a lot like her dam, but with an improvement in her teat size & shape! Yay!
Avena has matured into everything we had hoped for! She was only shown twice as a 2-year-old in 2011 and won her class both times...and then went on to win GCH and BU at the very competitive Sonoma County Fair...following her mothers footsteps! We're excited to see another year on her...
Avena has more than exceeded all of my expectations. With a big move last winter and freshening 2 weeks early this spring, I wasn't sure what would be in store for her this year. She slowly came into her milk this spring, getting up to quite a respectable amount especially considering her early kidding. I started to give her some special treatment and got her clipped and prettied up...and bam...she knew she was special again and it was showtime!
Show day at Nationals came and Avena looked...well...beautiful! . She was only shown 3 times...her first show was Nationals where she was named 2012 ADGA National Champion, followed a week later by going GCH at the CA State fair and was also part of the Supreme Best 3 Females, and a couple weeks after that was GCH for the 2nd year in a row at the Sonoma County Fair.
Avena is not only a show winner...she reproduces herself in her sons and daughters. Her first milking daughter, Avita has been undefeated in the showring as a yearling milker. Avena's sons Avalanche, Wai'Ale'Ale, and Second Thought are all producing beautifully uddered daughters for their respective owners. Avena is a very special doe...and we hope she has many more productive years in her!
Avena is turning into an incredible brood doe. Her daughters Brita and Avita both placed 2nd in their respective classses at Nationals this year and teamed up to win the First Place Produce of Dam for Avena! And not to outdo herself, Avena kidded with twin AI doe kids this year...and they both look like her to boot! Avena also has THREE sons listed on the Elite sire list (SG Avalanche, SG Wai'Ale, and Stingray)! Avena is a special old lady...and she knows it too!
