After a 365-day lactation, 1326-ET produced 72, 170 pounds of milk, with 2, 787 pounds of fat and 2, 142 pounds of protein. That' a lot. A whole lot.

What does that equate to? We did the math.
8, 295 gallons of milk
or

or
about 7, 217 pounds of cheese โ€” that's enough for 115, 472 cheeseburgers (each with one ounce of cheese)

"She's always been a really good milk cow, and a very solid type cow, " owner Tom Kestell says. "This record wasn't hard on her โ€“ she looks great and feels great. She just wasn't stressed out at all, just like the rest of her family." Ever-Green-View My 1326- ET, and was 4 years, 5 months when she made her record-breaking lactation.
