[QUOTE="jerseylover14, post: 1303728, member: 24772"] It is highly unlikely that you will find jersey/ brahaman crosses due to the fact that by breeding a small breed of cows such as jerseys to large brahaman bulls would greatly by diminish calving ease. Which is a major factor that most dairy farms breed for so they don't loose as many cows and calves due to birthing complications. Plus many farmers don't want to have to pull calves unnecessarily. Jersey calves tend to weigh between 25-50lbs at birth, and beef calves are much larger 75-170lb and some even heavier. [/QUOTE]
