Zik's daughters are medium sized, excellent dairy cows with very good rear udders, well-attached in the fore, and with a strong ligament. Their teats are ideal size and well positioned. As second and third-calvers, they have developed greatly, increasing their body capacity and matching this growth with tremendous production. The Zik daughters were much admired by the World Jersey touring group in England and also in France in May 2008. His daughters have a low cell count and farmers have expressed their satisfaction with the Zik progeny as "no problem" cows.
