Summer 2010:

Mariah freshened with lovely twins and went right to work making milk.   Mariah has a deep, sexy voice and it never fails to make us laugh as she mournfully coos that she would like to come in to get milked.  She loves her job in the milking parlor and almost RUNS from the door to her milking stand once we let her in.

Summer 2009:

Mariah arrived here in late July.  She comes from Reuel Dairy in Washington state.  Her sire is the brother of our buck, Marco, and her dam is a 10 Star, Superior Genetics, Elite Doe with two Grand Champion show wins.  While Mariah was doing time in the quarantine pen (a mandatory time away from our herd while we run health exams and tests) she learned how fun it is to jump on her sun shade as if it were a trampoline!  This girl is not only going to be productive and beautiful - she's going to be a real trouble-maker!!
