Jersey Highlander 4-sale
I have a 13 month old Jersey/Highlander heifer- she is the sweetest, easy going cow you will ever meet. She is very healthy and looks more like a highlander. She allows you to pick up her feet and will follow you anywhere.
She will be a perfect candidate for hand milking loves to be fussed with.

$900. or best offer

Liz, I wish I was set up to have a cow. She's just what I want. Are you planning on continuing making this cross, or is it a one time deal?

Where's Barker? If I had a small livestock trailer I'd consider coming up and giving her a ride.

I was curious if anyone can tell me how a Jersey/Highland cross would milk?
I currently have a very good mid size Highland bull that I have thought about breeding to my 4 mid-size Jersey heifers. Is this a waste of time or would the offspring if, if heifers, have decent production and butterfat? Would a steer from this cross have yellow marbling from the Jersey? Just wondering if anyone has been doing this cross with any success on both meat and milk.
Thanks in advance,
Todd
