Sometimes we offer cows in milk or bred cows to new farm homes. We are picky as to where our cows go, wanting to assure that our cows will be well loved and taken care of, as they have been here.

The Mini Jerseys are truly wonderful small dairy cows and they need to be milked at least once daily and many times twice daily. Do not listen to the fable that all of these cows can be milked only once daily...you may set yourself and your family cow up for mastitis or worse.

With milking comes commitment, so be sure you are willing to put in the time to keep your family companion healthy and happy.

Please let us know exactly what you are looking for in your family milk cow companion and we'll try to make a good match. This is far more important to us, than the cost of the cow.

All of our cattle are friendly, they know their own names, are disease negative for BLV, BVD, TB and Johne's, DNA on file with UCDavis, registered in the MJHB&R without exception. We breed for superior traits and the best conformation in the southeast, bar none.

You've seen the rest, now buy the best!

We raise some of the finest actual Miniature Jersey bulls to be found anywhere. Any that do not meet our strict criteria, are steered and put into the freezer for beef. It is much more than "looks" or even size, to us here at White Star Farm. Personally, I like to see each bull grow and mature here at the farm before relocating to a new home, but occasionally we will sell a young bull calf at weaning to be trained by their new owners. They can and do change dramatically in their first year of life.

We have a complete package of traits that we breed for. These include pedigree, temperament, polling, straight top lines, well balanced hips, good feet, longevity of parents, height at maturity and lastly, the beta casein type. We are super careful about the bloodlines we choose to keep at our own farm, because it is our belief that genetics can and do breed the temperament of the sire and dam, into their offspring.

We hand raise each bull on bottle from his dam to assure bonding to human caregivers. They are respectful and compliant or they do not end up as sires. You can trust the bulls that we sell to be what we say they are.

All bulls no matter the breed, can be dangerous if not handled and respected as well as taught respect. Here we work with each bull from a young age to respect our space and we do not tolerate playing with them. We have learned over the years of raising superb bulls, to never touch their face or poll...this can send a signal that you want a challenge, to which he will eagerly comply. Learning how bulls communicate has been a topic of study for me. I have put that knowledge into each of our young bulls training. I am one of few breeders, who genuinely loves to raise bulls. You will immediately see the difference in a White Star Farm hand raised bull, compared to many others.

We have over 30 mini Jersey bulls collected in storage in our tanks. Many of those units are for sale, some we have a very limited quantity of, so those will remain here for the future of this breed.

We began purchasing some of our historical bull semen long before we ever purchased any cows. The semen units available at that time were few and far between as well as dwindling in supply, as a finite number were available. And most of the bulls were no longer alive. It is important to have these genetics to shore up the best of the bulls used to begin this breed long ago, to continue them for the future. The older bloodlines are still our favorites to produce the classic look of the first mini Jerseys created here in the USA about 40 years ago..

All of the bulls that we offer in semen have been tested for BLV, BVD, and Johne's prior to collection. Typically we only collect a bull once in his lifetime and we absolutely never collect a bull under one year of age as some breeders/sellers will do just to make money quicker.

Our preference is to see live offspring on the ground or confirmed bred cows before collection to be better able to judge the offspring that the bull will produce or if he even can breed and settle cows. Many collected young bulls tend to disappoint when they mature (as well as their inferior offspring), because they usually mature much taller than advertised or become very aggressive.

Your choice in sires can make or break your offspring for many years down the road. Choose your sires carefully.

At times, buyers need to have their purchases delivered for various reasons. We try to accommodate our buyers' needs by hauling our cattle ourselves or helping to find a trustworthy hauling outfit, when we cannot. We typically choose from several whom we have used in the past that did not disappoint in the way they kept their trailers clean and well serviced or the care given to our animals.

Prices are usually in the range of $1.50/per loaded mile so you can base your needs on this average cost. The comfort and care given to the animals far exceeds the fastest delivery possible, but the goal is to arrive timely and in good condition, with good communication with the buyer along the way.

Please let us know if you may need these services and we'll be happy to help out.

We firmly believe in the DNA verification process of all registered cattle in our Herd Book and Registry. The MJHB&R is the first and only registry to implement it's use from the inception of our organization. The MJHB&R is also the first Miniature Jersey Registry to use and report the Beta Casein testing status on each Certificate of Registration, as well as polling and other vital information. Other registries have followed us and imitated our standard of excellence!

The MJHB&R does not automatically accept all submissions...we have set rules, policies and criteria that is considered for each entry. If an animal is rejected for registration for any reason, the owner will be notified in writing.

All of the cattle we accept for entry must have their DNA on file with us...so no mistakes in identity or pedigrees are made. Using DNA as our rule, is the only way to keep records impeccable and trustworthy.

The MJHB&R lays claim to having the highest integrity in this business. You can trust that our Registrar actually investigates each animal to assure it's pedigree and information is correct, before releasing it into our records or issuing a Certificate of Registration. We need no disclaimers on our Certificates, because DNA is our rule.

The MJHB&R has been in operation since 2009 as the ONLY and ORIGINAL membership accessible online Herd Book and formed into a full service registry in 2011, available to it's members 24/7/365.

The Miniature Jersey Herd Book & Registry is truly the most unique MJ organization and is one of a kind. We are often imitated, but never duplicated!
