Go Zoe Bird!

For kicks and giggles today I decided to actually measure out how much my little Mini Lamancha doe is milking (3yr old second freshener). She is averaging about a gallon a day right now at only 3wks fresh . I am milking her twice a day (the other girls are all once a day) and she is giving me on average a little over 2 quarts a milking which puts her at like I said about a gallon a day. Go Zoe Bird!

I don't know if that is good compared to other Mini LaManchas but for my little girl to be keeping good weight and putting out a gallon a day as a 2nd freshener who is only 3wks fresh I am pretty proud. I just had to share with my goat family on here .
