We are so very proud to announce that Twin Willows J Elaine has made the ELITE list for the second time in a row. The ELITE designation is given to animals within the breed who are in the top 5% in Milk Fat Protein Dollars (MFP$) Elaine made the list in the Summer 2018 list with 95th percentile and this week made the Fall 2018 list with 98th percentile! Not only that, but Elaine has been awarded Superior Genetics, which indicates that she is in the top 15% of Nigerian Dwarf does who have superior PTI (Production/Type Index) calculations. In a nutshell, it means that she is excelling in DHI and LA. We also have two more animals who have made Superior Genetics this round. We have also just dried up three does who have made the requirements for their milk stars. I feel so humbled and extremely proud that these animals are finally showing what they can do. It's been a long, long eight years and we are finally getting to where we want to be with our herd.
