Study the breed page and then when you have it narrowed down ask questions.
Make sure to check each category. We have some good info stickied within some of them that will help you be prepared. And don't be afraid to ask questions.

Nice gentle (for the most part) breed! Good butterfat producer if your looking to make cheese, butter, etc. We had some jerseys years ago and I really like them. Unfortunately they kept having to many bull calves and we don't have any purebreds left.treehouse said:
CHEESE AND BUTTER tha is exactly what we are looking for
What did you feed them and are they ok with the heat down here, I know I am not and I just can not believe that anyone can actually survive out of doors down here. I am originally form Michigan and spend alot of time outdoors I am sure water is a factor and shade for a cow ?

Where are you at? There is a place in your profile to enter it and then we would know without asking you each time.
They eat the same as any other cow, hay, grass, corn silage, hayledge, grain.
For heat-shade, breeze (fans), water to drink and some have ponds the cattle can go in.

More and more talk about them here and I am really missing them! We do have a few holstein/jersey crosses from when we bred our trouble breeding cows back to them. But, now someone thinks she wants blue & white cows so we have been using milking shorthorns. I have trouble getting them though. If they are blue they tend to be bulls.wynedot55 said:

Would you please tell the cows that? They just don't seem to want to throw blues.wynedot55 said:
