She is classified EX94 and has given over 10,000kg in her last three lactations. Impuls Flower is also the dam of Alderston Hovborg Flower VG88 that has just completed her third lactation having given 8,773kg in 305 days at 5.04% fat and 3.74% protein. Alex has an impressive sire stack and his sire, DJ Broiler, has been the top selling bull in the Jersey breed in the past two years with more registered progeny than any other sire. Broiler has more than 100 milking daughters in UK herds and he combines high fat and protein production with low cell counts and an excellent type proof at +1.8 Type Merit and +1.7 Mammary.
