We classify both Jerseys & Holsteins on a regular basis, usually twice a year for both breeds.  We submit every 2yo that is milking at the time to ensure that all daughters go into the sires proof.  We also re-submit cows that we think are worth more points than they currently hold or cows that are "in-form".   We take the attitude that if you wait to score the cow next year, she could be sick or even worse, she could be dead.  Cause you know when you are working with cows its always the good ones that die on you.

Some Highlights of our herd:

Holstein:

Barkly Donor Carly (ET), Ex91
7 out of 8 generations VG/Ex

Kaarmona Emerson O'Rain (ET), Ex91 2E
11th Gen VG/Ex

Kaarmona Bullbar Carly 4 (ET), VG85 (2yo)

Kaarmona Bull Carly 2 (ET), VG85 (2yo)

Jerseys:

We currently have 140 jersey cows having entered the milking herd.  The whole 140 cows, which includes 45 heifers still on their 1st lactation, averages an outstanding 87.59pts.  Of the remaining 95 jerseys that are on their 2nd calf or better, which are therefore eligible to go above 88pts, we have a staggering 48 cows scored 90pts or better to average 88.66pts.  Quite amazing, 48 90pts or better cows out of 95, thats a whopping 50.53%.

Another statistic that we are extremely proud of, considering our scale, is the fact that our Jersey herd contains:

    - 34 females that are either backed by, or are directly themselves, 3  generation VHC/Ex.  Included in this are a couple strings up to 7 direct generations VHC/Ex;

    - a further 30 females that are potentially 3 generations VHC/Ex.  That is, they currently have their 2 closest dams VHC/Ex & they may make 3rd generation VHC/Ex as they mature.
