Amaltheia’s ADGA Genetic Pedigree
“Theia” excels in strength of bone, dairy character, and length and levelness of topline. She is another of our first generation LaManchas and was an early indicator of the stretch and strength we were hoping to further incorporate in the LaMancha herd. Unfortunately for Theia, she came into her prime winning two legs to her championship in 2006 and was never shown nor appraised again after suffering a nasty bout of mastitis the following year. Despite hard lives, Theia, her twin sister Aphrodite, and her dam Arachne have proven to be incredibly successful brood does and with does like Adrastea, Acythera, Avalon, and Deesse now exemplifying our herd, we think it was worth the wait. Simply to keep the number of kids born down, Theia was not bred in 2010, however, she was bred in subsequent years and delivered beautiful kids (mainly boys) until the ripe old age of 12 years old. A powerhouse her entire life and the most eye-catching animal in the herd, it was a sad loss to find that she died in her sleep in 2015.
