Best Answer

Jerseys are the highest butterfat producers of any dairy breed. And yes, Jerseys are a dairy breed of cattle, known for producing lots of milk. They are one of the smallest dairy breeds (the smallest most popular dairy breed), with cows only topping out at 1000 lbs and bulls at only around 1500 lbs. They have deep brown eyes with a black nose, black pigment around the eyes, black hooves, and a dark tail switch. They range from a fawn colouration to almost all black, and always have lighter colouration around the eyes and muzzle. They are fine-boned and angular in body, with cows having a large udder, a refined and neat-looking head and neck, and often a docile, but sometimes sassy, temperament.
