This buck has developed
into a powerhouse buck
in the last two years. He is very tall and sharp showing
great width in the chest and throughout his body. He exhibits
a lot of width in his escutcheon and stands on very correct feet and legs.
His dam, Ariel, was one of our strongest does even at 11 years
of age. She has one of our best mammary systems and has
produced records to over 3000#M. Simba seems to improve
body capacity and width. I would not use him on does
needing added length of body.
Simba sired the 1st place yearling milker at the Nebraska State Fair
for Jill Denker. One of his daughters, Chrys,
earned her dry leg at just 6 weeks of age. Simba has been closely related
to many of our does so has been used only minimally. We hope to be able to
use him more this year and look forward to seeing more daughters in milk
soon.
