[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1764001, member: 42782"] My old pet Jersey all her calves were sired by Angus because that is what we had on the ranch. 2 were heifer calves, the rest became steers. The first bull calf she had was red. You could hardly tell he was half Jersey and he brought a good price, over $1000. Each successive angus cross calf became screebeeyer and screebeeyer ( we call them screebs) with more and more dairy character, even from the same bull. The two heifers I halter broke and gentled to sell as family milk cows but they became wild anyway. I think they inherited the Scottish disposition. I took all of them to the auction hoping to slip them in on an order buyer's truckload because they were black. By the way, I found the reason the heifer fence crawling was the fence had shorted out. I fixed it. While I was fixing the fence her dam, my old pet Jersey, followed and was licking me. I like the Jersey disposition. I'd prefer to sell her heifer to a local rancher for a brood cow. All they milk could raise a nice calf. The Angus that sired her is built like a brick _house. [/QUOTE]
