[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1360504, member: 9267"] I'm pretty sure there's a few Friesian bulls here in NZ that are A2/A2 - it's not something I specifically breed for, too many other traits that are more important. So while it is often linked to the Jersey it can be found in the black and whites too for people who wanted to breed that way. My crosses don't generally have udder collapsing issues, but then, they're grassfed and not pushed for high production either. We lose the occasional one that the ligaments go at around five years old or less. Interestingly, I had a daughter and now several grand-daughters of a cow I bought whose udder collapsed like that and they have all been fine, the daughter was seven last year when I culled her for having a sniffle when there wasn't enough grass to feed everyone, still had an udder like a 3 yr old, and her sire wasn't a particularly good-uddered bull either.
