After we lost our Jersey to that horrible slip and fall last Spring I just kinda took a break from everything. We went on a couple of camping trips including to Pensacola florida and just enjoyed some time off.
Well, here we are almost a year later and my kids are begging for another cow.. my girls in particular since they ended up doing a lot of the milking. They all miss the cheese and milk and butter.
So, we are cow shopping again and I noticed that there are several posts about Dexters, Belfairs and mini jerseys and the like.
I do think we're looking more in that direction as well. We loved our Jersey and wouldn't mind another, but we really could use a slightly smaller one than our last. She was a pretty big girl as Jerseys go.. definitely not an old world jersey at all
We're in South central Kansas and willing to travel somewhat.. Missouri, Oklahoma and most of Kansas.
We've done some work on the barn to prevent future falls and have revamped our milking area to be more functional than it used to be.... we're all excited but willing to wait and look for just the right cow for our family.
Hope ya'll are all well!
