This hard working doe is the one who started it all for us. Her high production and long, steady lactation cycle prompted us to purchase our first registered Nubian buck so that her bloodlines would not be lost. She distinguished herself not only with her superb milk production (approximately 3000 pounds in a single lactation) but also with high fertility (she twinned as a first freshener and has dropped triplets when bred out of season), by earning her Superior Genetics designation and later by scoring 90 VEEE as mature 8+ year old doe.
For most of the time she has been with us, Sunshine was the herd queen. She was is very assertive, but had a low tolerance for disturbances or disagreements within the herd, making her 'reign' a peaceful one. Sunshine was a partner in the milking parlor and very affectionate with those humans that respected her. She liked to do what was expected of her, but didn't care to be pushed around. Asking will got people farther with her than demanding something from her.
Sunshine's udder was not only productive, but matched our ideal of what a goat's udder should be. She had a smoothly blended fore udder, nice rear udder attachment, a solid medial suspensory ligament and teats that hang plumb center below each udder half with a clear udder floor differentiating between where the udder ends and the teat begins. Her orifices were a little on the tighter side in her first several freshenings, but since she's reached maturity became a moderate size that was easy to get milk from without requiring much pressure although her descendants have larger orifices that require even less pressure to get milk.
