Maple started off our kidding season by delivering triplets in the wee hours of the morning (1:30 am!) on February 13th. She probably would have delivered a few hours earlier except the little doeling who was first in line was breech and slowing things down. After letting Maple push for as long as I was comfortable, I woke up Clayton to hold her while I repositioned baby. After that, Maple delivered all the kids quickly and took charge as the very capable mother that she is.
We’re excited about the pedigree on these kids. Their sire, Cabochon XY Prosecco, has Superior Genetics awards on both sides of his pedigree and has strong dairy character with great angularity and openness. His dam is SGCH Carl B’s OH Sweet Champagne *M (EX VEEE 90).
Their dam, Cabochon PB Mapleshade 4*M, comes from a line of proven milkers and has a beautiful, correct udder with soft, easily expressed teats. Maple scored an 88 on Linear Appraisal last year which is the highest score possible for a first freshener. Maple’s 2018 doeling, Cabochon XY Sassafras, won Grand Champion Jr Doeling at her very first show.
These kids are available. Please contact us if you would like more information.
