Pet/Butcher Alpine doe needs a home.
I have a purebred Alpine first freshening two year old doe who needs a pet home asap. She was aquired in a trade deal last year when I traded a lady some Boers. Absolutely quality walking. Just a beautiful yearling.
She freshened this morning and I can't milk her on one side. Seems her breeder snipped off an extra teat when she was a kid and it was a working teat. Very obvious now. *Never* snip off an extra teat until after a doe freshens, you may be doing irreversable harm!!  I advise not taking them off even then, but thats another story.
Anyway, they both must have had orifices and now she is impossible to milk on one side. It took me 15 minutes and I didn't even begin to get her milked out. So she is being dried off now. As soon as she is dry, she needs to go. She is such a sweetie, I don't want to butcher her but will if I have to. I don't care if you want to butcher her, I just don't want to do it. I would like some small payment to help offset all the feed costs I have incurred on her over the past 10 months, but thats negotiable especially if your interested but would be coming from a good ways away. She is a Sundgau Alpine. Her name is Daisy. I'll get pictures loaded asap. Please e-mail me if interested. fourreal@getgoin.net
No breeding homes, just pet, brush control or butcher please.
