How much hay do jersey cows eat?

AnswerThe short answer is it depends on the size of the cow, if it's lactating, pregnant, the quality of the hay, etc.(Last answer said that they fed cows grain. Grain is NOT grass, cows are rudiments, grain lowers the PH levels of their stomach, causes bad tasting milk and lackluster health of the cow, generally used as a cheaper alternative, or to fatten a cow, in large scale production. Not recommended)

How much does a jersey cow cost?

This is like asking, "How much does a car cost?" Or, "How much does a Ford cost?" Not all Jersey dairy cows are the same, so the prices will not be the same. An older unregistered Jersey-type dairy cow that is dry (not currently lactating (producing milk) with no milk records, etc will bring a fraction of the price of a registered Jersey in milk and in her prime from a pedigree of top producing cows with high appraisal scores. The answer: from several hundred to several thousand, with the occasional top cow bringing quite a bit more.
