Im looking now at a Lamancha/Alpine doe and a Lamancha doe and her 2 doelings The Lamanchas will ne registered, the cross will not but both are in milk and have been shown and milked before. The cross is a 4-h goat and is currently being milked Heres the doe and doelings

My two La Mancha cross does are a dream to milk!

Pretty goats....you could have a whole herd all at once! I'm milking four does this year and loving it.

I cant wait!! Im going to see them tomorrow All i need now is a buck! And maybe I should sell a few of these goats I cant milk, lol. Im going to keep my 2 nigi/pygmy does and breed them to my 3/4 nigi buckling but other than that im sticking to my milkers. Thinking the kids can show them in next years fair.
:celebrate

Welllllll....... you could always breed them to the nigi buck and call the offspring Mini-Manchas! You'll still get milk from the does, after all... :p

So we decided definalty on the full lamancha and her doelings, they are precious. The alpine/lamancha is at the end of her milking cycle and is drying up it seems so she doesnt suit our needs right now. We did find a very nice doe, though she is about triple the price but they are getting a gallon out of her right now and her mom was a VERY heavy producer from what im told so I think she is worth it. Plus she is registered and out of very good lines. Waiting on pics then we will go see her but Im pretty excited. As far as bucks I have found a couple people with bucks willing to let me breed to them so all is falling into place.
:weee :clap
