[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 794749, member: 839"] The Jersey's I had, I had crossed with Angus. (I had 2 Jerseys) The two cows were not related to each other. I found it to be a good cross, and a not uncommon one at that. The cows always had smallish calves in the 65 to 75 pound range that came out easily except for one time when the one Jersey got bred by a Brahma bull, that calf needed to be pulled. The calves grew well and didn't have that scrawney Jersey look to them. You could tell that there may have been some dairy influence, but the calves sold well at the market. FWIW, at one time I had considered AI to Angus for them and the Select Sires rep in my area had 2 in the catalog that were used often on Jersey cows. Just my 2 cents worth regarding my experience with this cross. Katherine [/QUOTE]
