Milk Testing
MDGA has several
options for milk
testing to prove your does productivity in the milk pail. Those wishing to milk
test without reporting to DHIA will be allowed to send their paperwork to MDGA
to be figured and returned. We offer either an official DHIA milk test or one
that is done within MDGA for the evaluation of earning *P awards. For more
information on the different options, click on one of the buttons below:
 
Advanced Registry
1. Any doe receiving a Star from a 305 day test will receive an Advanced
Registry certificate.
2. A single one-day test will not qualify a doe for Advanced Registry.
3. A doe receiving 45 points on 3 different one-day tests held in the
same year may qualify for an Advanced Registry Certificate if one test is held
during the first 3 months of lactation, the second during the second 3 months of
lactation and the 3 during the final 4 months of lactation.
Inherited Production Stars
1. Does may have multiple stars. If the daughter of a *P (MDGA), a *D
(AGS) or *M (ADGA) earns a star, the daughter becomes a two star producer; each
generation in an unbroken line would add a star number. So the 4th doe in the
line receiving a Star would be a 4*P. MDGA will recognize the production star of
an AGS or ADGA dam or sire and grant the mini offspring an inherited star if a
copy of the dam or sires star certificate or other official AGS/ADGA paperwork
is provided to MDGA.
2. A buck inherits a star if both his parents are star animals.
3. A buck may inherit a star if both his dam and his sire's dam have
earned stars.
4. A buck may earn a plus if he has three AR or star daughters out of 3
different dams.
5. A buck may earn a plus if he has two sons who have earned a plus.
6. A buck may earn a plus if he has two Star daughters from different
dams and one plus son.
7. A doe may earn a star if she produces 3 Star daughters.
8. A doe may earn a star if she produces two plus/Star sons.
9. A doe may earn a star if she produces two Star daughters and one
Star/Plus son.
