    ff cows in jersey are usually for milk and a beige or brown colour not a beef cow as in south of scotland beef cows they have more muscle and are more hardy

    LOL, no offence taken here :rotfl:
    was just saying think cows are gorgeous animals,
    Scottish, jersey or English or whatever :D
    funny conversation talking about cows :rotfl::eek:
    gave me a chuckle anyway :D
    think maybe they have to be more hardy up your end rose as the weathers usually worse up there than down here & in jersey :eek:
