Jersey calves.

[animalhouse143]

i have two baby Jersey crosses. Is it true that they are very aggresive when they grow older? At the moment they are very dosile and love to be around people. Im hoping if i spend enough time with them that they wont become to mean. pleasae let me know...

I'm guessing they're bull calves...and yes Jersey bulls can be very very aggressive. Castrating them is a piece of cake and very necessary.

Read this post. It isn't that the Jersey is mean, just that you are bottlefeeding, and they're bonding with humans....
