LOTU........IN Topside's photo the calf to the far left is what you want but the black right beside him is holding his head a little to high.......wonder if he ever got sick.....but Topside feeds goats milk so probably not

Lotu, Myersfarm is right the black ones head is high....That calf was a tall one as compared to the little Jerseys and it's head will be higher. If my memory serves me right the nipple should be 24 inches off the ground....TMJ I'm ready for a sale barn run whenever you are....I'm shooting for Christmas week, the 22nd....Topside
