Goats - Kiersta Mock
Hardin FFA

I am a Senior at Hardin High School. This would have been my second year at Dairy Day. Last year, I won reserve grand champion market goat. I have been showing market goats for 3 years, and breeding goats for 1 year. I was a Calf Scramble participant at the San Antonio Livestock Show and Rodeo in 2019. I returned in 2020 to show my Fullblood Boer Doe, KMV1 Snitches Get Stitches. I plan on starting my own herd to help other 4-h/FFA kiddos! After graduation, my objective is to go to Sam Houston University and major in animal science. My market wether goat, Missile, weighs 65 lbs and is 6 months old. He is on the smaller side but he would be perfect for a summer/early fall show! He just needs more time to hit his bloom! During this COVID-19 quarantine, I have spent 4 hours per day with him. He is more of an automatic goat, as soon as you put him against your leg. He digs his feet in and pushes! He is a very level topped dude with a nice hip angle that has the ability to hold more muscle as he gets worked out more! He has a wonderful forearm muscle with a nice, wide front end!
