Milk testing can provide you with a plethora of information about your does' milk production and the components of their milk, and you they can even earn milk stars, but a lot of people never get started because they find the process daunting.
Lisa Shepherd, board member and former Performance Program Coordinator for the American Dairy Goat Association, joins us to talk about the different types of milk testing and how to get started. We talk about where to find a tester, as well as owner-sampler and group testing. You'll learn about one-day tests, 305-day tests, DHI, and DHIR. Lisa also explains how does and bucks earn milk stars, as well as the things that most commonly trip up owners when they are getting stared.
