Butterfly Waltz is our youngest Country Melody daughter and I am so impressed with her femininity and smoothness of blending. Butterfly Waltz shows very prominent withers, tightly set elbows and lovely top line. She reminds me very much of her Sire and I can't wait to see what the combining of two beautiful pedigrees will look like in person in a few years.
Her Dam, SGCH Bellafire BP Country Melody 1*M (EEEE 91 @ 3yrs 2m) swept all three rings at the first show of the season as a three-year-old. She was an impressive sight that day! Melody was so long bodied and elegant as a junior doe, I knew it would take her a few years to grow into and fill out all that length...at three years of age...she did it! And her elegance was noted by an impressive EEEE 91 she earned at Linear Appraisals at just 3 years old. She is also so very impressive in the milk bucket, milking 5.6 pounds at 41 days fresh into her second lactation.
Butterfly Waltz's Sire, Wood Bridge Farm Valedictorian stands just 20" tall! He is extremely correct and proportionate, balancing width and depth throughout. He possesses great dairy strength, refinement, flatness of bone, open ribbing and loose skin. He stands on good feet and legs with strong pasterns. Valedictorian's Dam was the 2014 ADGA National Junior Champion and his Paternal Grand Dam is the only two-time winning ADGA National Nigerian Grand Champion and Best Udder both years as well. And as if all those impressive accolades were not enough...Val's Litter mate sister is the highest selling Colorama kid in ADGA history. CH Wood Bridge Farm Spelling Bee sold for $16,100 in 2016 and then went on to win her two-year-old class at the 2018 ADGA Nationals! Both on paper and in person, this guy is the total package!
Butterfly Waltz is the first of Melody's daughters to resemble their sire instead of Melody at this age. It will be so exciting to watch this little gal mature!
