Two successful rounds of scores for Zandenburg Holsteins
Doorman Camilla EX-90, Apli Ebony1 VG-89 and Josup Ebony VG-88
In May, during the biannual classification day, 5 two-yr-olds and young dairy cows already received VG-88 at Zandenburg Holsteins. Last week Zandenburg Josup Ebony, Zandenburg Apli Ebony 1 and Zandenburg Doorman Camilla were rescored during a re-classification!
The average over 22 two-yr-olds in May was an outstanding score of GP-84.0! Outliers with VG-88 were the two Foris sisters Zandenburg Floris Camilla 1 and Zandenburg Floris Camilla 2.
During a second visit of the Dutch herdbook, last week, the Sommers family showed three dairy cows for a re-score. The 4th lactation Uecker Supersire Josuper daughter Josup Ebony was good for an overall conformation score of VG-88 with EX-92 MS. Zandenburg Apli Ebony 1, a third calver Stantons Applicable scored VG-89 with EX-92 DS. Ebony 1 VG-89 is a daughter of the great brood cow Zandenburg Sundance Ebony VG-87, which has calved 5 times now and is still present in the herd.
Zandenburg Apli Ebony 1, classified VG-89 now
The Anderstrup Laudan Camille VG-89 family now has several generations at Sommers, after the purchase of Flevo Genetics Snowman embryos from Camille VG-89's Ramos daughter. One of these purchases resulted in Zandenburg Snowman Camilla VG-89, whose granddaughter Zandenburg Doorman Camilla received a well-deserved score of EX-90 with EX-91 DS and MS. The line from which Camilla EX-90 originates contains many highly classified cows that combine conformation with a super production. For example, her dam Zandenburg Meridian Camilla VG-89 participated in the European Championship in Colmar in 2016 and was named Intermediate Champion Midsummer Dairy Show 2016.

Wanja VG-86 is not only the 10th generation VG/EX from the To-Mar Wayne Hay EX-90 family, but also recently managed to pass the 100,000 kgs milk barrier!
