11. Scores will be figured on the following formula:
a. Multiply pounds of milk by 5.55
b. Multiply pounds of milk by butterfat percent, times 1.11
c. Multiply days since freshening by .0555 (maximum points allowed for days in milk is 19.98.)
d. Combined totals from a. b. and c. designates final score.
Example: a doe fresh 50 days with 5.8 pounds of milk at 4.8% butterfat:
a. 5.8 x 5.55 = 32.19
b. 5.8 x 4.8 x 1.11 = 30.902
c. 50 x .0555 = 2.775
d. 32.190 + 30.902 + 2.775 = 65.867 (rounded to 66) Doe receives a star.
12. A Production Certificate will be issued to any doe qualifying for a Production Award (*D).
It must be requested by owner and a $4.00 fee paid before certificate will be processed.
ADVANCED REGISTRY
1.
A doe on 305 milk test that meets or exceeds the requirements for lbs. of milk and/or
Butterfat, will receive an AR*D designation.
2.
A single One-Day Test will not qualify a doe for Advanced Registry.
3.
A doe receiving 60 points on 3 different One-Day Tests held in the same year may qualify
for an Advanced Registry Certificate if one test is held between 15 to 90 days since fresh, the
second is held between 91 to 211 days since fresh, and the third is held between 212 to 305
days since freshening. (See rule 9 above for calculating days since freshening).
INHERITED PRODUCTION STARS
1.
TMGR will accept all production titles, including those of the foundation animals, provided
TMGR's requirements were met. A copy of the Lab Report must be sent to the Registrar and
Milk Program Director when registering Does with Milk Stars.
2.
Does may have multiple stars. If the daughter of a star dam earns a star, the daughter
becomes a two star dam, each generation in an unbroken line would add a star number. So,
the fourth doe in the line receiving a star would be a 4*D.
3.
A buck inherits a star(*S) if his dam earned her AR or star, and his sire is either a star or a
plus buck.
4.
A buck may inherit a star (*S) if both his dam and his sire's dam have earned stars.
