I'm just getting started in Hollands and realize that I have a LOT to learn. I purchased a doe 2 months ago at 8 weeks old simply because I liked her color. Thanks to a very reputable show breeder I now realize that that was a huge mistake and I should have purchased something that had at least passed through the uglies. As a result I'm assuming that the doe I have now will be a total bust.
Here's what I'm seeing but would love someone else's evaluation.
* long ears
* possible shoulder dip
* long front limbs
* slipped crown
Am I right? Is there anything I'm missing? I have the tiniest hope that she might be good enough to be a brood doe but please critique her harshly. I'm not willing to sacrifice the future of my herd because I made a mistake.
