Great classification day at Poppe Holsteins

Poppe Holsteins can look back on a stunning classification day. No less than 21 Holsteins and Red Holsteins were scored. The herd of the Poppe family is known for its tremendous high milk production. For example, Delta Colorado daughter Poppe Fienchen 8685 Red with a daily production of 70 kg milk in her third lactation is the standout!

The Fienchen family doesn't need further introduction. With almost 40 descendants of Elites-JSJ Fac Feebe-Red EX-92, this is without a doubt the most influential cow family in the herd. During the last classification, Jan and daughter Julia showed seven Fienchens. These seven cows received an average total score of 84.7. The 2nd calver Balisto daughter Den Hamer Red Hot Feebe RDC took the crown, she was the highest classified offspring of this cow family this day with VG-89.  She increased her score with a point. Feebe RDC is owned by Red Hot Holsteins, that has has a very successful partnership with Poppe for some time. Feebe has a son at KI Kampen and also daughters in de herds of Voorhof Holsteins and Oosterbrook.
The highest classified first calver is Poppe Fienchen 1512 with a total score of VG-87. Fienchen 1512 is a result from 'double' Poppe breeding. Her sire is Poppe Snow RF, a Snowman son from the also well-known Pietje family. Her half sister Poppe Fienchen 1137 RDC (s. Silver) is also scored VG-87/4YR.

Together with Red Hot Holsteins, Poppe owns several offspring of the Willems-Hoeve Rita family. This originally black and white line now ensures a lot of fun and success within the Red Holstein breed. Poppe Red Hot Rita 1503 managed to achieve a nice VG-86 with VG-88 frame. Through her paternal line she also owns Fienchen genes: her sire is Poppe Efrain (Effort x Fienchen 803 RDC VG-86). 

One of the most promising milking heifers in the herd is the German KHE I'm Good. She's co-owned with 3STAR Genetics. The Gymnast daughter from KHE Isolde VG-85 earned a beautiful VG-87. Her mammary system was rewarded with a whopping VG-89, with a estimated production over 13,000 kgs milk in 305 days! I'm Good has a full brother named Gigante. He can prove himself at AI station Aberekin in Spain. They descend from the French Ugela Bell daughter Gourmette EX-92.
