Glimmercroft Mini-Mancha Does

Raven Crest ML1 Sally (First Generation)

Sally is a sharp, very dairy doe with a tremendous udder, pictured with 13 hours of milk.  She has the desirable slick coat, showing nicely in this photo where she is unclipped except for her springtime udder clip.   This doe has a high, full rear udder, strong medial, nicely placed teats of good size and length, and a well-extended foreudder.  Sally peaked at over 10 pounds a day in her third freshening.  And lest you think she's a giant, that's me behind her and I'm five-foot-three!

Raven Crest ML1 Selena (First Generation)

Selena was my very first Mini-Lamancha to freshen, and all I could say was "WOW!!!"  Her udder had a perfect globe shape, good capacity, teats with good size and placement, and wonderful attachments all around.  Then there was the beautifully supple texture of her udder and the incredible ease of milking this doe.  Selena is an uphill doe with a strong, smoothly blended topline and long level hip.  She has tons of depth and body capacity, enabling her to produce over seven pounds a day of delicious, rich milk in her third freshening with no loss of condition.  As a bonus, she's a sweetheart on the milk stand.  I am completely sold on Mini Manchas!

(Selena's udder is mostly empty in this full body shot.)

Glimmercroft Shine (Second Generation)

Shine is a lovely second-generation, gopher-eared daughter of Sally and Valentino.  Even though she isn't set up in these photos, you can see that Shine is very nicely put together, with a refined neck blending into sharp shoulders, a strong topline, strong feet and legs, and then there's that high, arching escutcheon area and tremendous width!  Shine is Valentino's first daughter to freshen, and I am well pleased with her udder.  Just see for yourself!  You can click on either picture for a larger version.  What you can't see is that Shine also has very good production, peaking at over seven pounds in her first freshening, and she's wonderful on the milkstand.  The quintessential dairy goat!

Glimmercroft Mirage(Second Generation)

Mirage is very feminine, long and refined, with a strong topline and wonderful blending.  She has the typical Valentino rear end - long, level hip and high, wide escutcheon. 

Mirage has freshened, and I'm milking more does than I want to, so to keep my numbers low, I've decided to make Mirage available to a good home.
