Atrides is a very long, tall, uphill buck. In
this year's kid crop he has improved length, stature, front end assemblies, depth of body, straight legs, and leg
curvature.
Atrides dam is number 3 on the 2005
top 15% list for alpines for yield http://adga.org/SD/Nov05does21.htm so we expect a lot of milk from this guy. Bette Mae, according to Shari Reyna of the Mt. Zion
herd, was always milked 2 years between breedings. Her lactation as a 4yo was (305-3300-130-3.9%) .
She received 2 GCH legs before laying down in the ring and refusing to be shown. Fortunately, Atrides, doesn't do that.
:) If anything he loved being in the show ring and was absolutely perfect!
Atrides was high on the 2004 young
sire development list, so we are looking forward to infusing his fabulous genetics into our herd!
Atrides has relocated to Gahama Goat Farm in Minnesota. We will continue to use him via A.I.
