Udderly copacious !

Australia - a southern Queensland dairy farmer is claiming one for the record books.

'Duchess', one of his herd of 350 milkers, is producing twice as much milk every day as any other cow.

The Darling Downs' farmer's holstein friesian is producing up to 80 litres of milk per day - that is double the production of an average cow.

Cameron Janke says he bought Duchess for $1,000 and she just will not stop producing high quantities of milk.

"She's just a very capacious, tall, wide, a super aggressive cow - she's got a real top udder, the udder is glued right up into the cow and it's not going to fall off in her life time anyway," he said.
