Originally bred in the Channel Island of Jersey, the breed is popular for the high butterfat content of its milk and the lower maintenance costs attending its lower bodyweight, as well as its genial disposition.

And roar from yonder dropping day:

The forest crack’d, the waters curl’d,
The cattle huddled on the lea;”
