ARE BOMBING! ARE BOMBING!
It’s worse than I feared. They are crossbreds and they are duds. The genomics look good, the first proofs look okay, maybe the second isn’t too bad, and then, WHAM! They fall off a cliff.
BEWARE, some bull studs don’t mark the bulls clearly. JX prefix means crossbred, NOT purebred Jerseys.

“Udders are softer... and milkout is more complete.” — Alan Kozak
CLOVER PATCH DAIRY MILLERSBURG, OHIO Alan and Sharon Kozak 429 Reg. Jerseys #4 GJPI in U.S. 58 lbs/cow/day 5.3F 3.8P 135,000 SCC
“I like Udder Comfort,™ especially for fresh heifers. Getting colostrum into the calves and Udder Comfort onto the udders are post-calving priorities here,” says Alan Kozak. He and Sharon operate Clover Patch Dairy, Millersburg, Ohio, milking 429 registered Jerseys. Their herd is No. 4 in the U.S. Genomic Jersey Performance Index (GJPI). They produce just under 60 lbs of 5.3F 3.8P 135,000 SCC milk in a grass-based system. (https://wp.me/pb1wH7-7n) “We use Udder Comfort because this is the product that works. It softens udders and removes edema fast. It reduces swelling and congestion in fresh animals better than anything else we’ve tried, getting udders in great shape, fast. It’s also part of our routine for any clinical mastitis.
“But our main use is at freshening. We spray fresh udders consistently after milking for the first 3 to 4 days. Udders are softer, milkers stay on better, and milkout is more complete. Quality udders and quality milk, that’s what I like to see.” Quality Udders Make Quality Milk To locate a dealer, call 1.888.773.7153 Visit our new website at uddercomfort.com @uddercomfort For external application to the udder only, after milking, as an essential component of udder management. Always wash and dry teats thoroughly before milking.
