    Today I started looking at getting a mini jersey cow. So I come across your video. And I was shocked to hear your son's name Lochlan witch is what we just named our son. I had never heard it before naming our son.

    So, how is that electric fence going to work in winter when you have 2 or three feet of snow on the ground? Is it going to short out all the time? It looks like a great idea. Can you deactivate the bottom two lines or something similar ? I "have first dibs" on a heifer that will be available this summer or early fall. I'm really looking forward to getting fresh milk at home. Cheese, ice cream, butter, and beef if she has a bull when she is bred. It seems like a miniature jersey gives you a lot of "expensive" food stuffs.

    • @GrowingDawn
      @GrowingDawn  Před 4 lety

      Great question! We don’t get a lot of snow here, if we do, it’s only a few inches and goes away quickly. We don’t know of a way right now to deactivate the bottom 2 lines but you could probably find a fence that has fewer lines.

      You're right. The vet that came out and told us the same thing. Some of those clips were prior to the vet visit. We're learning a little more each day. We'd love to hear if you have any other pointers for us. - Stephen

      Try joining some FB groups and keeping an eye on craigslist. If you find one locally you hit the jackpot! I would expect to have to travel a bit to get one since the breed is more rare.

      We get 1.5-2 gallons each day. Mini jerseys are a bit hard to find and can be expensive. We were blessed to get a great deal on her.

    • @GrowingDawn
      @GrowingDawn  Před 2 lety +5

      A cow = food for our family. It also saves us money on buying milk from a separate local farmer. I think it was a pretty good investment. 🙂
