Summer 2010:

 

Langley still rushes to leave the parlor once she is done milking.  But she does a great job while in there.  She has wonderful teats for easy milking.  She is also easy going and friendly.

 

Summer 2009:

 

Langley has developed a bit of shyness.  She comes in for milking, eats her grain, and does a great job, but the second she is released from her milk stand she darts off to join the rest of the herd.  Well, she stops at the door to get her animal crackers first - then she darts off.  Funny girl - sweet and shy.

 

July 2008 update:

 

Langley is still a real sweetheart.  She loves attention and to be rubbed on and scratched.  She is also loving her job in the milking parlor.  She jumps right up onto her stand and is very cooperative.  She is producing well and will earn her milking star this year.

 

July 2007 update:

Langley was the third born kid out of a set of quadruplets.  She wasn't the most splashy of the four and not the largest or smallest.  But after a few days of rest after her birth, she did become one of the most interactive and sweet kids in the bunch.  She just loves attention, but is also happy playing with all her buddies.  Langley has wonderful genetics and it will be great fun watching her grow into her potential.

Can you see why we sometimes call her "Longly" instead of Langley?  Three year old Lang.
