2013 Lactation Now in Progress

Summer 2012: 

Serenity is a yearling milker now.  She loves her job and is very eager to come into the milking parlor for work.  She is doing a great job and we expect that as she matures she will be quite a powerhouse.

Summer 2011: 

Serenity is the spitting image of her mom, Sydney.  That is just fine with us!  It is fun to watch her as she grows.  It's like revisiting the past when Syd was a kid.  However Serenity is anything but serene.  She is a first class Rapscallion.   She can launch herself over the gate on the milking parlor deck, as well as over the gate onto our "people only" deck.  Nothing stops her - yet.  Hopefully she will slow down enough next year to get milked twice a day.  Until then - let her run and jump.  It's cute.
