Meet Jessie. She was our first Jersey. We purchased her when she was five months old. Although she had been weaned, we
began bottle feeding her once she arrived on our farm. She loved the goat's milk! She is three years old now and
a rotten baby girl. We have enjoyed watching her grow up. She has also been bred to our Jersey bull and is due to calf in May
of 2010.
Jesse and her heifer, born in May 2010. She's a beauty and Jesse is such a good mother!
Jess had a beautiful, bull calf in October 2011. We found them just minutes after he was born.
The little bull all cleaned up and several weeks old. He's a beautiful boy!
This is Jessie's little heifer all grown up! We have to look, closely to tell her apart from her Mama. Sissy has
been bred and will calf in March 2012.
This is Dolly. She came to our farm in the spring of 2009 and we actually had planned to sell her. She was such a good
looking girl that we decided to keep her on our farm. She was bred to our Jersey bull and had a bull calf in April of 2010.
The baby was born dead so we purchased two Holstein bull calves to put on her. She accepted them and was a wonderful
mother.
Dolly had another bull calf, born in April of 2011. She has been bred back and is due to calf again in the spring
of 2012.
Here's Dolly's bull calf at one month old. We sold him as a breeding bull when he was around four months old.
Here is the newest addition to our farm. This is Maggie and we purchased her in May 2011 from a farm in Kentucky. We
also bought an orphan bull calf, along with Maggie, and they have bonded and are doing well.
Maggie has adjusted to our farm and we're really enjoying her. She's a great girl!
This is Butch, our 2 year old bull. He's as gentle as all the girls, right now. He's been on our farm since he was
four months old.
