[QUOTE="vclavin, post: 838038, member: 13613"] After years of searching for a Jersey milk cow... we stumbled across a new dairy that bought one of our angus for his dairy herd. We got there a little early with the bull and as his wife was feeding the calves told us her husband would sell the heifer calves..$200 each. We pick out one Jersey heifer and on the way home decided we better have 2, just incase.. I've raised lots of beef calves on the bottle but not dairy heifers. They are 2 and 3 weeks old and already gone thru the scours. Our vet is to vaccinate them and ear notch test for BVD before we bring them home, anything else I should know that may be diffrent than raising beef calves? ( I understand Jersey don't tolerate cold very well... also.. suggestions for AI when they are old enough?.. like to plan ahead) Thanks Valerie [/QUOTE]
