NW Scout, born June 11, 2018, Polled, A2/A2, Fawn, Midsize height expected. Scout is 100% Pure Jersey genetics. Scout has potential for a pure Jersey program to improve cheese merit, net merit, and fluid merit. His dam's udder scores the highest in our herd's Genomic reports.

BÉBINN EARA, pronounced: Bay-Vin Ay-Rah, means "Fair Lady From the East". She's a selective cross of a traditional size Scottish Highland bull over a Miniature Belted Galloway cow. These complimentary breeds are known for easy calving, foraging ability, a double coat for winter hardiness, parasite resistance, and high butterfat. This compact beef cross could be used as a dual purpose cow, providing bull calves and milk for the table. Bebinn loves attention, and will do anything for food or the brush. She came to us from TN but is staying in ID to be a pampered pet.

Munchkin, IMCBR6137, is Buttercup's first calf and Snowflake Flurry's half sister. Both her dam and sire, DC Todd (IMCBR4412, MJHB057) have some big names in Miniature Jersey breeding. She's a sweet little princess, always eager to be the center of attention. She loves being scratched and brushed all over. She will stick her tail nearly straight up when you rub her udder! We think she's going to make her new family in California a wonderful family milk cow.

Buttercup, IMCBR6103, our first Miniature Jersey, was three years old and bred with her first calf, a heifer we named Munchkin, when she came to live with us. She's sweet and friendly, with the most adorable white tail switch! Snowflake Flurry, Buttercup's second heifer, inherited her star marking. Her new family is eager to spoil her and welcome her third calf due Nov. 2017. Buttercup is a dream come true for this New Mexico homesteading family.

Creme Caramel (Cara) went to a young family working towards self-sustainability on 180 acres in Colorado. She will gave them a heifer by Wellington later that Summer. Cara is the first calf born to Buttermilk, a half sister to Creme Brulee and Emerald, and the granddaughter of Sweet Cream. She's somewhat shy but an excellent mother to Ruby and affectionate to our Livestock Guardian Dogs. Early in her lactation she tandem nursed Ruby and Emerald. Her training will serve her new family well as their first family milk cow.

Buttermilk is the Dam of Creme Caramel and Emerald. She tandem nursed Caramel and Creme Brulee (her half sister by the same Dam) early in her first lactation, later nursing Toro, then Wellington. She went to a long-time milkmaid in Kansas and is the pasture companion to a cow and calf. Buttermilk left our homestead fresh in her second lactation and rebred to Wellington. She was one of our original two Jersey cows and the beginning of Lorinda's obsession.

Creme Brulee (Caramel's half sister by the same Sire) went to a family living off-grid in Missouri with young children. Brulee is an integral part of their lifestyle. They make cheeses, yogurt, and butter with her milk. She arrived there expecting her first calf in about five more months, having been bred to Toro. She delivered a gorgeous heifer and has been a wonderful mother, readily standing to nurse and be milked.

Sweet Cream is the Dam of Buttermilk and Creme Brulee and one of our original two cows. She went to a rancher's wife in Kansas. Lorinda was just learning to milk and two Jerseys in top production was too much! Sweetie was the more patient milker and in her second lactation. She easily gave 3 gallons of milk a day, with a quart of cream per gallon. She was affectionate and gentle, allowing us to give milking lessons to the children who toured our homestead.
