Rainbow is a feisty girl who likes to thinks she's boss, but easily gets put in her place by the other does. That doesn't stop her from trying though!
Her dam, Riot, is the third sister to Rave and Revel out of Fire and Loca. She unfortunately was retired after her first kidding so we don't have any mammary photos for her.
Rainbow's sire, Sun Bear, was out of one of our favourite does at Potting Shed, Maggie, and a US import from Rosasharn Farm, Hermit Crab. Hermit Crab has sired many kids in Canada now, some of which we've seen first hand and they are always impressive. (Sun Bear sadly passed away in the summer of 2022)
Rainbow freshened with a single buckling for her FF and although she was very lopsided, she had a lovely udder. Her teats are long and nicely placed, her fore is extended and her rear udder height was just what we like to see. She was placed on the one day milk test in the late spring and earned her milk star with 4.86% butterfat and milked out 3.30 lbs - not bad for feeding a single buckling!
Rainbow blew us away with her second freshening and we couldn't be more pleased with what we see!
