Feet are great, udders seem to be lasting well, it's just cull and calf value that they suffer on.
They still have to be miles better than a pure jersey a hereford or blue and id say youd get a saleable calf.As for cull value if cow has served you well over many years a few hundred quid at the end is not worth worrying about

Anyone else’s cows production just drop off a cliff? I’m guessing weather related but I’ve seen dry cows with more milk than my girls tonight. I know they’re sulking like all hell about not being out to grass which isn’t helping as they’re just watching the gate constantly
