[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 838931, member: 14661"] Jersey's are actually quite easy to bottle raise IFFFFF you get the nutrition right. Holstien milk or replacer meant for holstien calves won't cut it(as you've already figured out). Fat is the key. As far as AI'ing them, sorted jersey is one of the best values out there. Jersey heifers will concieve with sorted semen almost as well as they will with conventional and you can have OK results using it on the lactating cows as well. Get in touch with me before you purchase semen for them and I'd be happy to let you know which sorted bulls are performing well for me at that point in time as I use thousands of sorted units a year and fertility can vary from bull to bull.
