Glori freshened with plenty of milk as a yearling however her udder is uneven. She milks easily and does not have mastitis. Teat placement is improved over her dam, Grazie. Glori peaked at 10.8 pounds milk/day as a first freshening yearling then she had a bit of an episode this summer with what we believe was nitrate poisoning when she ate a large amount of freshly cut weeds. Her milk dropped to zero for about 3 days but she has come back to milking 7.7 pounds/day in late August. The original plan was to milk her through the winter since was was producing a phenomenal amount of milk. The plan now is to milk her through February if she can maintain production, then freshen her later in April. Plans are tentative at present. We'll see how she comes along.

She did place last at most shows due to the uneven udder. Her general appearance is still good but when she has to compete with Bricksie and Hallie, she is not going to move up the line unless and until her udder evens out. Depending on her udder appearance, Glori may be for sale this winter. Glori kidded easily her first time with triplet bucks, no intervention needed other than to catch the kids as they dropped out. She has excellent feet as well, very little trimming needed throughout the summer show season.
