Eve herself is fit and well, but, will be retired from the milking herd after this lactation.  We hope to flush her for embryos during her retirement.

She has numerous daughters in the herd  and is the dam of Givendale Maxwell . Eve is typical of the type of goat we aim to breed in the herd.  She milks well, has good conformation, is fertile and long lived.
