Rocking Goat Farms Mimi

Mimi is a tall, level doe who carries herself gracefully. She is our "pseudo mother" to all the doe kid bottle babies, and loves to be surrounded in a snuggle pile of young does. Mimi enjoys being with people and appreciates a good cheek rubbing. If you're not careful, she will steal kisses on any part of exposed neck or facial skin. Mimi is also a goat who helped earn them the reputation of being willing to eat everything and she will steal papers, drawstrings, and anything else she can get into her mouth when given the chance.

What we love most about Mimi, aside from her personality, is the width and levelness in her rump. She had the highest score (at 32) of all our does for rump angle in our first Linear Appraisal. Her hips are wide and flat enough to carry a dinner plate, and this is carried nicely out through her pin bones. She kids very easily and unassisted as a result, hiding triplets in a very unassuming profile her first season with us, and delivering quads with ease in 2022. Mimi's udder has great great capacity and milks down nicely. She takes a little longer to milk than the most of the other girls, partly due to milk volumes and also her orifices could be slightly larger. Her teat size is nice and they hang very plumb with a well defined medial. We hope that we can add some width in rear udder arch and better blending of the foreudder in progeny through breeding.
