Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 It depends on your direct area market, check auction costs for Dairy animals for the heck of it, then check Craigslist.org, THen check Keeping a Family cow group online, it is worth joining and nice folks there, also has an Auction Barn thread main one, they will have some quality Cows many for small Homestead use handmilking, gentle ones, they bring more money when easier to milk with out much fuss, We live in NO Arkansas, so our Market varies, cause there are many Dairy Cows north of us in So MO. , If you ask me and your Cow is a good girl to milk , i would list her for 1500-1600. as a Family Milk Cow and Nurse Cow, especially if all her Teats are working well. Best Wishes, and ask anytime or email us, AJ and - Jersey owners as well. > > Belinda > We just bought 10 jersey, jersey cross heifers/cows and paid $1200 each for them.
