How to explain our total love for this incredible
doe. We knew she was something special when she was born. She showed that
in the show ring as a kid. Then she continued her incredible journey of
showing, by being undefeated in the showring, as a dry yearling going 2x
Best Junior Doe in Show, 2nd place dry yearling at nationals and to top
her year off, was picked as the INBA Reserve All American Dry Yearling.
So, you must understand our nervousness when the time came for her to
freshen. You know, the curse of the Junior Champion. It did not follow
Molly. She freshened with a beautifully attached, high, wide ear udder
with a very smoothly blended fore udder. To say that she is an improvement
over her dam, is an understatement and Arianna has a beautiful mammary.
Molly has set the bar for this herd to follow. She is the epitome of what
a Nubian should look like in our eyes. Now for the first show. Let the
excitement begin.
Molly is now retired from the show ring, but
continues her place as our top brood doe. She continues to amaze us with
the progeny she produces. We gave Molly 2017 off after back to back
quintuplets. We feel that giving Molly a year off was the right thing to
do. She is looking awesome this fall and now has been bred to Monte for
March kids.
*Molly will now be officially retired from
breeding. She has proven herself in the show ring and as a brood doe, and
will now live out the rest of her years happily greeting visitors to the
farm. **You know when your does age, their
time with us becomes limited. Saying goodbye to them, when that time
comes, can be hard on our hearts. GCH My-Enchanted-Acres Molly Brown lived
a good, long life. She kidded her last babies at age 11, putting 23 kids
on the ground over her breeding years. She outlived quite a few of those
kids. These last years, she’s lived a wonderful, retired life. There is so
much I could say and so much to brag about this doe, but truthfully,
nothing would come close to explaining the love I had for my sweet Molly.
We found Molly curled up next to her best buddy yesterday morning. She
went out how she lived. With quiet dignity. RIP my girl. You left a
legacy. Your days here are done. ** |
