The cow family that traces to HS Duncans Heidi Honey is another DeMent family favorite.

She epitomizes the DeMent philosophy of breeding and developing productive, long-lived cows with excellent type conformation. "Honey" is appraised Excellent-90% and made 11 lactations in all. She bred back easily every time, with calving intervals about one year apart.

"Honey" was purchased from fellow Illinois Jersey breeders Harley and Mary Etta Schlabach, Arthur, as a two-year-old from the Illinois Invitational Sale in 1990. She was the second-high seller of the day and proved to be an excellent investment.
