Sire: DRRL Farm Bull Winkle (Serfling Farms SK Dexter VEE89 x Whispering Tales Littlestangel VEVE90) Dam: Whispering Tales Artemis (Whispering Tales Jupiter x Whispering Tales Graysen)

Butterscotch is the herd queen and has proven to be a steady milk producer. She has many strengths in her mammary including large teats, strong medial and good attachments. If I were to nitpick, I could say that I think she should have better rear udder height and larger orifices.

 In 2022 we put our herd on official milk test for the first time. Butterscotch was already well into her lactation, but surprised us by continuing to milk a strong 2 plus pounds of milk after being switched to once a day milking at 8 months in to her 3rd lactation.

In September of 2023, Butterscotch finished her 4th lactation with a little over 1,010 pounds of milk at 280 DIM! She will hold the honor of being the very first doe in our herd to earn her milk star.

 In August of 2022, Butterscotch was scored in linear appraisal for the first time at 4 years old. At 9 months in to her 3rd lactation she earned a score of VVEV 87. We are very pleased with how well she did, especially considering how far in to her lactation she was! Butterscotch has a very good front end assembly and we hope to use her genetics to improve that area in the rest of our herd as well.
