Nightlock is an exciting young doe from what has become a very consistent line for us, that just really hasn't been in the spotlight just yet. Being linebred on our dam line going back to our foundation doe Bellatrix and successful herd sire Drakon, she is exactly what you'd expect from this breeding. She's extremely correct in general appearance with lovely strength of pastern, correct set to the front leg, good strength of brisket and natural levelness of topline. While this line is not a big one, she is very well balanced in strength having a deep and wide chest floor and plenty of depth of barrel already as a dry yearling. This dam line has only been shown because they're a smaller line, while still making breed minimum height smaller statured does are frequently overlooked in the ring.
Nightlock is the first doe from this line we've brought out of the barn in several generations. While I'd like to widen her out a bit and see more maturity of her front end, she is certainly a flashy doe. She only went to one show in 2023 but was first in both rings, and grand champion over several mature permanent champion and excellent scoring does - as a first freshener! Her udder is extremely correct in shape, and milks down to nothing. The future is bright for her and we expect big things once she matures!
