Helfer calves are raleed, not sald, and registered Ayrshire cows fetch 125 to 200 dollars while good grade cows 80 to 100 dollars. Some cows reach twenty years, though grain feeding shortens herd longevity. For American dairymen, Scots cows showcase uniform quality, careful care, and economical feeding, highlighting the gap in efficiency between U S and Ayrshire herds.
