[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 841685, member: 14661"] Jerseys are extremely easy calvers and are also extremely resiliant as compared to other dairy breeds. They are, however, metabolic trainwrecks if the nutrition isn't right. I'd put out some mineral for the last trimester to make sure she gets everything she needs and then forget about the calving part. Once she calves get her full of dry matter so she doesn't produce more milk than her body can afford to give. [/QUOTE]
