The last "Family Cow" we owned was 1/2 Gurnsey, 1/4 Jersey, 1/4 Ayrshire TALK ABOUT CREAM but she was tiny teeted and a bit hard to milk by hand. I got her in the Amish community as I recall. We tried to pin the calf up at night and milk her 1/2 in the mornings only but that system didnt work all that great...Mom and baby were always nervous stressed and whining bawling and complaining geeeeeeeeee
I think since the days where its milk production and NOT butterfat that counts, Holsteins have taken over for large commercial dairys, but if I had another family cow Id want a Gurnsey, Ayrshire, or maybe a Milking Shorthorn. They look so peaceful and have more of a mother family cow look lol and besides I dont want such a hugeeeeeeee volume of milk since Im doing it by hand.
