Linear Appraisal

We had our first ADGA Linear Appraisal today. It's a fascinating experience. We'll get it done again next year. The appraiser said overall we're good on heads, shoulders, and legs but my homework is to work on rump angle and teat placement which I have been concentrating on lately. We dam raise and our Nigerians are lawnmowers who browse on mountain sides but I'm striving for top-of-the-line lawnmowers.  :-)
