Miss Tara is the 3rd generation of Willow Hedge Farms' black American project. They're planning on taking out a COD in the next couple of years. Tara is going to help :) She's a little pinched in the rear currently, but may fill in a bit as she grows up. My goal with her offspring is to improve that rear. When she's ready for her first litter, I'll pair her with Julius, both for his rear, and to test her for the recessive REW gene. She's a sweet, pretty girl, and I'm so happy to finally have a black American in my herd. They are, after all, what first hooked me on the breed. Funny how it's been the hardest color to acquire.
