We were so proud & so touched this year when Survivor came to
Nationals with us as a 7 year old and won her class! She had won
as a Jr. Kid in 2001, and has been consistent through the years - but
never 1st in the class at Nationals again until now.
Everyone has a story...and Survivor has hers. Her dam
Sprite kidded very early in the morning in 2001 (4:00
a.m.!) with two buck kids - I was present for the kidding and subsequent
cleaning...No one else was there...or so I thought! 14 hours later, out in the barn to do the evening milking chores,
we heard “something”...but couldn’t find anything. Kept hearing it
again...and stop...then again...After
searching pens several times for the elusive sound of a baby...I was
near the hay feeder in Sprite’s pen....and heard that sound...after
digging through the day’s feeding we found a barely alive...but
dry...and crying white doe kid. Survivor...what
else? She’s thrived, she
produces, she competes, she does everything...she survives and does it
well! Her daughter GCH
Kastdemur’s Kadina 3*M who was our 2002 Colorama nominee has done very
well for Heather Arts in Idaho, winning Best Udder awards and
finishing her Championship.
Survivor
is long & lean, sharp and angular...a very “dairy” animal. Her daughter Vanuatu,
is now a finished GCH and appraised EX93 (EEEE) as a 3 year old.
Daughter Fiji is really beautiful as well - long and tall,with a
beautiful udder - just not mature yet. We've kept a full brother
to these two does as one of our herdsires - *B Kastdemur's Eye of the
Tiger appraised VG89. Tiger shows that same stature & length
& stretch we see in his sisters, as do his offspring.
Length of bone, dairyness, angularity, these are the strengths
that Survivor passes to her offspring. We are excited to have
repeated the breeding of Vanuatu for
2008 kids!
Bred to: +B Dagron Taipei's Toronto
