Where are you at? The dairies near me sell day old Jersey bull calves for around $10 each.

 

[steven20]

I'm in searcy Arkansas where are you

 

[ksalvagno]

Have you looked in Craigslist or contacted dairies in your area?

 

[steven20]

No i haven't didn't think you could do that on Craigslist...is it under farm and garden?

 

[ksalvagno]

Yes, you would look under farm and garden.

You could look through the ads to see if anyone is selling and you could post an ad saying you want one.

 

[goathiker]

I'm in Oregon unfortunately.

I am in Oklahoma and they sold 2 jersey bull calves at the sale this past weekend for $125. They are way higher priced than they used to be, but most people should be having fall calves now and should have some available.

 

[steven20]

Oh okay lol and what part of Oklahoma??

 

[ptgoats45]

I am in Northeast Oklahoma. They did say the calves were from the OSU dairy herd, so you may try to contact them. Maybe you can get one from them before they take it to auction. the Swan Dairy in Claremore also sells calves, but theirs are typically beef cross and are black or black and white and they were selling them for $150 last year, not sure on this years prices as I haven't checked with them.

 

[steven20]

Alright I'll have to do that

Another thing is crazy that none of these vets around here don't know anything about goats it really amazes me

Usually they only get 1-2 days of training, if any, in vet school.
