Bourbon is striking, as long as you don't look at her udder. Her tight shoulders, straight legs, brisket, barrel, and of course that face, make her quite the sight to see. However, she ate a bit too much as a baby and grew too tall, and though she can produce a lot of milk, her attachments are not what we are looking for. However, with careful breeding she has created some stunning kids, including Meriah shown below, and Kahlua, owned by 5 Acre Farm. We repeated the breeding that gave us Meriah and Smoochie and kept a little girl named Cinnabar. If Cinnabar grows up like her sisters, we'll be letting Bourbon take it easy and retire. She deserves it.
