Macadamia's ADGA Genetics Page
I'm so very happy to have been able to obtain Mac from the Carpenter's at IronwoodRanch. I've admired SGCH IronwooRanch SJ Pecan 2*M - both her beauty and production. Pecan has earned Breed Leader status with both ADGA and AGS for Top Ten Production in 2009. Macadamia's paternal Granddam, SG IronwoodRanch SJ Minnie 2*M has also earned Breed Leader status for lactations ending in 2009 and 2010. I am expecting that the depth of Mac's pedigree for stellar milk production will bode well for her productivity, as well as productivity for her future progeny.
Macadamia moved from Arizona to Missouri during her first lactation. I suspect that her future lactations will be more productive without the disruption, especially so early in her lactation.
Macadamia freshened with a lovely doe sired by RHV CTO Schroeder *S. Unfortunately, a neck deformity ultimately took her life. The ordeal Macadamia went through is evident in her early second lactation production record. She had a noticeable drop in production on her second test, however Mac has more than made up for it on her third test. I believe she is finished grieving, and now she's getting down to business, meaning producing milk! She thoroughly enjoys being milked and her production level is on an upward trend.
Macadamia appraised well in 2013, scoring very good in every category with the exception of rump. She appraised + in mammary, and I do believe her capacity has increased since her appraisal. We'll be looking forward to watching this doe blossom, and hope to have a daughter to retain next year.
Mac has been bred to RHV CTO Cointreau *B for spring 2014 kids.
