My Grandparents are going to let me raise a cow up on their farm.
I will be raising a dairy cow and just wanting to get some experience with a cow I was interested in.
I was thinking either Holstein or Jersey.
Just wondering a few things about milk-production:
1. Anyone know an average amount of milk both cows produce either per day or per year?
2. I understand Jersey's have a higher fat/protein level. Anyone know a percentage of fat/protein levels for both cows?
Thanks - sorry for all the questions, just wanna get an experience with a cow I think I may want to raise in the future.
