Meet the Goats - Daisy


Daisy (Matrix YB Daisy if anyone is a goat breeder and wants to see her pedigree on adga.org) is a 3 year old purebred LaMancha doe. She is perfect in every attribute of breed character, milk production and temperment. She will not kid this year until around the first of May and we are in the process of drying her off from her last freshening last April. Almost 12 months fresh and still milking strong!
Daisy goes back to many of the goats I started out with in my previous herd under the Drucken-Hanks name with excellent stock from South Fork, Jerita, Altrece, Velvet Acres and others. I have believed in these lines for the past 12 years and they continue to contribute to the strong breeding program of the Matrix herd.
We will try to introduce you to each of our small herd over the next few weeks. If this sounds like a repeat, well it is. I had intentions of doing this last fall but returning to full time work with a busy travel schedule just did not allow. But Al and I both are committed to showing off our critters!
Next on the list--Daisy's 2 year old daughter, Dogoszhi.
