Tiqvah---Hebrew for Hope---belongs to another Granddaughter whose middle name is Hope. We bought her from Little Tots Estate when she was a baby and is one of the original Fab 5. From the very first day, I have loved this doe. She is simply exquisite!!!! Hope's sire is a triple Finished Champion who also has earned a 91 on his appraisal. Her dam's sire, Swell Foop, has produced some of the loveliest Finished does I've seen. His litter sister, Sugar Glider (dam to our Allamanda), and their dam, Jurassic have produced 11 Finished Champions!!! (Which are now producing Champions).
True to form, Hope's conformation is hard to fault and we are more than blessed that she has turned out to be one of our best milkers. Hope has lovely teat length, orifices, placement, attachments, and capacity. As a First Freshener, Hope ended up milking over 1000#!!!! Along with her Butterfat exceeding 9% multiple times, she ended up in the ADGA & AGS National Top 10 Milking awards both for 1 Day testing (all 4 categories) and 305 Day. Her 2nd Freshening (2014) lactation was just shy of 1200# for 305 Days, with her High as 5.1#. In addition, we were so blessed when Hope classified with an 89.8 which was rated at VG+ in April 2015---being 10 months fresh!!!! In ADGA's Linear Appraisal (summer of 2014), Hope was not only awarded a VEVV88, but she also received her Superior Genetics (SG) Designation. In 2016, Hope was awarded the coveted ADGA Elite Doe with a 95% PE. A huge accomplishment and one which we are most thankful for.
I am really excited about this doe and feel extremely blessed. I feel she's really just one of God's gifts to us and send my most heartfelt gratitude to Rusty & Lucy.
