Want Guernsey Heifer Calf SW Missouri

Kathie · #1 09/04/07, 07:36 AM

Hi,
I live in southwest Missouri, not far from Branson.
I have posted before with no luck, thought I would try again. We would like to get a calf and raise her up being used to being scratched, brushed and led with a halter and then milk her when she is old enough. I realize Guernsey heifers are very difficult to locate for sale. I have called dairies, talked to folks I know that know folks that milk, told salesmen that come by my office to keep an eye open for Guernseys as they go down the road,........STILL haven't located one. We have nothing against Holsteins, Jerseys, etc., but we just prefer a Guernsey. Please contact me if you have one for sale or know of someone who might part with one. Thanks!

Kathie,
Contact Chupps Dairy in Inola, Ok. Owner's name is Dale Chupps. They raise Guernseys about 30 minutes east of Tulsa.

I tried to contact them the last time I posted and could never get ahold of them. They must stay very busy. Maybe I'll try them again. Thanks!

I just got my updated list from the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. Seems there are 15 breeders of Guernseys listed. the nearest would be in OK or KS. Let me know if you want their information.

If you contact the Guernseys breeders assoc. you will find there are several breeders in that area.
