Nova Lishan almost didn't come to Bonne Femme. We had watched a 2-year-old, first freshening Mojave-Dunes Shimmering Star walk into a show ring with strong competition and leave with a championship. We weren't surprised when we discovered that she was a GCH Kastdemur's Time in a Bottle +*B granddaughter. We reserved a kid from her but she had only one doe kid and she was to be retained by Nubilop-Acres. Sadly, an impending surgery led the Stertz to disperse their herd at the time and Lishan was offered to us.

Lishan earned a restricted leg as a dry yearling and was heading to the 2017 ADGA Nationals when our veterinarian discovered that she was developing dry mastitis despite the fact that we had vaccinated her against it. Lishan freshened with a beautiful, even udder but over the course of her lactation, tissue damage caused her to become uneven. We spent a lot of time massaging her udder tissue and her third freshening showed much improvement.

We were very excited to see Lishan's fourth freshening udder and Hero's first kids. Unfortunately, Lishan was a casulty of the catastropic prolonged below freezing temperatures of February 2021.
