Cocoa Puff, “Cocoa” is a handsome girl and has a delightful personality.  She is strong and sturdy.  She enjoys being loved and petted on and is quite content just sitting there visiting with us.  She has champions in her lineage and we have been very pleased with her kids.  Her son, Hawkeye, from 2016 kidding has made a great herd sire for us, with a sturdy muscular build, and has an A/A Alpha Casein from a milk standpoint. We also retained one of her does from 2016, “Cara Mia”, who is excellent on the milk stand and received a milk star when entered into DHIA in 2018, and has had success in the couple of shows she has entered.

We had also retained another daughter, Stormie, and as a first freshener in 2019, she was excellent on the milk stand, one of our highest producers, and had a lovely udder.  We made the decision to bring new genetics into our herd, so had to sell some of our girls to bring in a couple others.  It was a tough decision, but Stormie was one we sold.  She indeed went to new owners that we knew would love and care for her very much.  However, I continually think that she was a very special girl and that we should have not let her go.  The positive side of this, we are happy she went to great owners and is loved very much.

Cocoa continues to make lovely babies and is an excellent mother.  We have noticed some breakdown of her udder’s lateral suspensory ligaments as she has aged with multiple freshening.  Although this is disappointing, she still produces very well.  Her udder is virtually all milk, minimal excess fat and tissue, and when she’s milked out, her udder shrivels up, as you would like in a good dairy goat. On the milk stand, she is a dream.  Cocoa has nice sized teats with orifices that make her fastest milker of our herd.
