“Sabo’s Faline”, born March 2008 (photographed March 2009), sired by New Zealand Jersey bull Beldene Dukes Landy.  Sabo Faline is an A1/A2 calf and will be bred July 2010 to an A2/A2 Jersey bull, LIC Sire 190JE0038 Hawthorne Grove Zeus.  For more information about A2 milk, see http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=1259149 .

Faline’s dam, Folly, is an extremely “easy keeping” Jersey/Limousin cow who fostered two extra Devon calves last year without losing any condition.  Folly produces about 2 – 2 1/2 gallons of milk per day on a once-a-day milking, 100% grassfed.
