Falasha is a very special doe to us---her dam, Sheba, was one of the prettiest Redemption daughters we've had---not only lovely, but a super milker, with a great personality. (Just like her mama Redemption) Unfortunately, Sheba was diagnosed with a rare bronchial disorder, and despite nearly 24 hr round-the-clock care, she passed away when Falasha was only six months old. Not only did it leave a huge hole in our herd, we were all heartbroken. Sheba was in milk for 133 days, miking 570# with a PE index of 93% and her Milk Test High was 4.1# as a FF. With those numbers, Sheba was well on her way to the 1000# mark---which is why her PE was so high.
Obviously we are thrilled with how beautiful Falasha has matured. She is following her dam line's excellence as she milked 4.4# her first test (as a FF). Easy to milk, sweet to be around, lovely udder and a fabulous mama. Yep, we are very, very thankful for this doe and so grateful to the Lord for turning around such heartache.
Falasha's name is the term for a Jewish Ethiopian...since Queen of Sheba came from Ethiopia and it is widely believed that she left Solomon's palace with more than just visible gifts, her son being the next Prince---with a great pride for his Jewish heritage.
