SAANEN DAIRY GOATS
Herd Sire
Triple-S-Farms Drepk Van Huey - 2005 ADGA registered American Saanen buck:Huey's mother was the top milk producing doe in the year she carried Huey. By top producing, we are not talking about the highest recorded milker in a breed, but the highest in the country out of all breeds! She milked 5200 pounds of milk in 305 days. In gallons, that comes out to more than 2 gallons of milk a day!!!
But that is only half of the story. His sire was the son of a doe that was a top ten milker two years in a row. Besides milking up a storm, his ancestors were also meeting the requirements for dairy conformation, with many Grand Champions in his background.
Two of Huey's daughters have production records; one extrapolated to 2800 pounds on her first freshening and the other 3200 pounds on her first freshening.
