The Jayne cow family traces to matriarch, Ogston Vertols Jayne, Kip's first Jersey purchase from the Ogston Dispersal in 1989. The purchase from AJCA Master Breeder, John Bishop VI, proved to be a worthy investment as she calved nine times in all and provided us with 16 daughters.
Jayne has more than 180 maternal descendants to date. We are currently milking seventh-generation offspring out of this remarkable cow.
