Jersey/Dutch Belted heifer for sale
Sabo Cora, Jersey/Dutch Belted heifer, at 18 months old, January 2011
Sabo Jersey cow Cupcake, age 6 or 7, is a small framed (46″ shoulder height), easy keeping, gentle cow. Cupcake is hand milked once daily, tied to any post we choose, without hobbles or any other restraint. Her 2009 heifer calf, Cora, pictured here, is Jersey/Dutch Belted (another grass-based, high butterfat dairy breed). Cora will spend her first month with her mother, 24/7, then gradually less each month as she grows (and drinks more of Cupcake’s milk!), nursing at will and learning proper herd behavior. Cora will finally be weaned at 9 months old, when we dry up Cupcake in preparation for her next calf, due June 11, 1020.
