[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13544"] So in her case, being born in Sept, she would be approximately 20 months when bred? That's feasible, after she's weaned and the other calf is butchered, she can keep the Jersey company. The Jersey is becoming a handful as she is too attached to me! It's like she views me as her calf, she's gentle as a lamb with me and lets me do anything at all with her, but won't let hubby touch her. She even tried to "protect" me from hubby the other day! This is getting ridiculous! I can't even go visit my mother overnight because she won't let hubby catch her to milk her. I'm thinking about just putting her in a stall when I have to be gone, so that she's easier to deal with, and have contacted a woman friend who milks 100 Brown Swiss to do the milking, since this cow refuses to allow hubby near her. Any suggestions for getting her to warm up to him? Normally he's the one that all the animals cling to! This is strange that he's not getting anywhere with her. Ann > Around the May 20 wouold give you > a calving date of around Mar 1, > but she shouldn't be bred to calve > before she is two two, in other > words breed her when she is 15 > months old minimum.
