[QUOTE="Canesisters, post: 1243788, member: 23760"] I started scanning craigslist a few weeks ago to get a feel for the local prices of a Jersey cow. The other day I came across an ad for a 3yr old-possibly pregnant-Jersey cow and her 7mo old hefer calf for $1800. I contacted them to verify if the price was correct since it was MUCH lower than any other that I've seen. It is. They want them gone as soon as possible. The ad is kinda long. Lots of info about how much they've been milking her, how friendly she is, what they're eating, etc. The quick sale (according to the ad) is due to family issues but they are willing to wait a bit for them to go to a good home that will be a good 'fit'. I know that they should be vet checked before going any further. Is there anything specific I should ask for or is a 'bovine pre-purchase exam' a standardized thing like it is for horses. Also, when I go to look at them, what exactly should I be looking for - and asking?????? :help: [/QUOTE]
