Dahlya has been a "quietly" successful doe in our herd. With a phenomenal pedigree being one of the oldest daughters out of Wysteria and Drakon, and has a lovely and very valued brood doe sister Something Wycked. This line has been consistent in mammary systems with long, wide fore udders and lovely general appearance and Dahlya is no exception. I've learned she is most certainly not the easiest doe to photograph, and really has to be appreciated in person to see how correct she really is naturally!
Dahlya went to a handful of shows as a junior doe where she did well in very deep classes and breed divisions. Then picked up her dry leg and milking legs at two of the only shows she attended after that, so photos have been few and far between. With already having an excellent appraisal score, I expect to see her improve with age from the longevity I've seen from this dam line holding up in general appearance well into maturity.
Dahlya's son *B Hops N Lops Rule the Galaxy has also slowly become an influential herd sire for us. He wasn't a planned buck to retain, but we are so fortunate we did with the angularity, length of bone pattern and correct feet and legs he's produced in her young daughters. Dahlya's line has been consistent for not only us, but as well as daughters and sons in other herds. Galaxy is proving he produces daughter with plenty of lateral attachment, strong medials and extremely high rear udders. His daughters are also long bodied, correct on their feet and legs, and so, so angular throughout.
