My dairy "reject" Elenore....
Finally took the time to get pictures of my jersey girl I found at a dairy. She is 2 I think. Should be 3 this January.

Cool water sure feels good on this very hot day.

Thank you, I really like her. I had looked at all kinds of ads for cows that were older, higher and even had problems that finally led me to this cow which was the cheapest, prettiest and in best health! LOL! Funny how things work themselves out. Finally.....for ONE time in my life....I was able to be patient and....Walah!!! LOL!

Yep willow girl....she just didn't produce enough with her 40+ pounds of milk per day. For me....plenty! LOL! She was making enough to keep her had he not had someone wanting a cow but not enough to ensure her a forever spot in the herd. I'm really glad too. Hehehe...

[B[/B] Oh She is so nice ! So far I have called 8 dairies in Ks and Tex and they either dont ans or tell me they send their culls to the processing plant or killer auctions ... What a waste ! Guess they dont want people to have a cow of their own, takes a milk customer off the market. Humph !

Cool find!
She looks almost exactly like our Jersey girl, right down to the smaller teats.

She's in very nice condition for a cull

Yep farmergirl, he took very good care of his animals. His whole herd was just as pretty as she was if not prettier!
I am topside. Love her.

And thank you all....I think she's purdy too! LOL!
