Classification at Holbra Holsteins

The Holbra Holstein herd recently received a visit from the classifier, and it was a successful one, resulting in numerous VG scores. One of the highest scores was achieved by a young, red Cookiecutter MOM Halo VG-88 offspring!

Fourteen cows from the Holmer family's barn got scored. The highest score of VG-89 was awarded to the fourth calver, Holbra Malon 16 (Hartley x VG-88 Board). Malon's Type and Mammary were EX-90 classified! Malon 16 is one of the six producing daughters of Holbra Malon 9 VG-88, all of whom are still present. Another scored sister, the 2nd lactation Holbra Malon 36 by Delta Nippon P, received a great score of VG-87 (VG-89 MS). This means the average of those six daughters out of Malon 9 went up to VG-86.7! Malon 16, the Hartley daughter, has a son named Holbra Sané at the Dutch KI Kampen.
