[QUOTE="WAguy, post: 468514, member: 4335"] On another forum directed more to family cows, the most popular recommendation is a Jersey. I try to make the case that higher producers have more problems like mastitis, so try to get a dairy/beef cross. Some will say that it's more the way dairy cows are managed that leads to mastitis. So, my question is, if you put a beef cow in a dairy, would she get mastitis just as often? How often do you get mastitis in beef cows? Do you have more problems in cows with bigger udders? I have an Angus/Jersey cross, which I find works well as dual-purpose, without problems so far. Of course, with both me and her calf milking her, she stays cleaned out pretty well. [/QUOTE]
