DOB: 7/25/2014 874 lbs in 260 days in milk on 2F LA 2018 V+EV 87 ADGAgenetics Information
Brie comes from a family of heavy milkers. Her sire is SG Piddlin Acres BBT Sunfire *B +, an ADGA Elite Sire for 2016. He has several daughters who have improved milk production over their dams. Brie's paternal half-sister Redstone SF Dark Star milked 1350 lbs. in 305 days during her second lactation with a high test day of 5.5 lbs. Dark Star is currently ranked in the 98th percentile. (We are waiting to see if Dark Star made the 2016 ADGA top ten in the nation breed leader list.)
Her dam, Ironwood Ranch TH Rafael, had a high test day of 4.3 lbs. Her littermate sister Redstone SF Reka had a high test day of 4 lbs. during her first lactation and ranked 93rd percentile.
Brie herself had a high test day of 3.9 lbs. during her first lactation and received her *M. She also has huge teats and a soft, easy-to-milk udder. I joke that I should time myself to see how quickly I can milk her out. Brie is friendly and patient on the milk stand. She is a productive doe, kidding with triplets her first year, and quads her second year. I am pleased with her linear appraisal score. She has a nice wide rump and lots of dairyness.
On Brie's second lactation, she did 3.5 lbs. on test day at 14 days fresh. At almost 4 weeks fresh, she is doing just over 4 lbs. She peaked at 4.3 lbs. but is continuing to milk really well (almost 4 lbs.) over 100 days out from kidding.
Brie aborted 4 weeks early (unknown cause) with twin bucklings that both died. She is putting in a decent lactation this year considering what a rough start she had.
In 2019, Brie had 3 healthy kids and a good lactation, but our herd has grown too big and we sadly said goodbye to her. She is currently owned by Jan Middleton in Southern Utah and will probably be bred to Noall's Ark BB Zafferano (Zoella's son) for fall 2020 kids.
