This is a Jersey Marketing Service Post.
This movement of computer servers will mean that bidding for the current Jersey Bid auction is postponed until Monday morning!
Sale close out begins at 1:30 p.m. (EST) on Tuesday, August 26. Be sure to keep your bid current on the numerous embryo lots, “Connection” semen and a genomic tested Polled bull!
Upon server relocation, check out JERSEY BID for more details on the lots available on the August Sale!
The Dixie Invitational will be on SEPTEMBER 6, 2014 and is hosted by Bush River Jerseys in Newberry, S.C.
The catalog can be found online to view, download and print. Printed catalogs are available by request only from JMS.
We currently have over 130 lots of cows, springers, bred heifers, breeding age heifers and some calves – something for everyone!
Join us in Newberry or watch and bid over the internet on the JMS online bidding site, JerseyAuctionLive.com.
Watch the blog for more updates, videos and pictures during the week prior to the sale as the cattle arrive in South Carolina.
Our Jersey Classifieds have changed a little and we are currently offering updated listings on these PDF files.

Letters inviting consignors to the upcoming 2014 fall sales are part of the Sale and Health Test Letters Page on the JMS Blog. These letters include advertising and cataloging deadlines, as well as sale and contact information. As time approaches, the health letters will also be featured here, for your reference.
Also featured on the blog is the Sale Calendar Page, outlining genomic sample submission deadlines, cataloging deadlines, and sale dates.
Be sure to check out more information and updates “From Inside the Sale Ring” and on the JMS Homepage as the JMS Fall Sale Season progresses!
See the prior post about the fall sale schedule here.
The Jersey Marketing Service Fall Calendar is already starting to fill. Between hay, straw and other cropping, and hopefully some picnics and fairs with your families, be sure to take inventory of your Jersey herd! Sales will be around the United States again this fall, so keep checking the calendar to see if you can consign and / or buy replacement cattle at any of the JMS sales.
**SALES HAVE BEEN ADDED!** CATALOG DEADLINES are approaching quickly, so be sure to contact JMS or your AJCA/NAJ Area Representative to have your consignments included! The most urgent sales to submit consignments for are the Ohio Fall Production Sale, Prairieland Fall Sale, Top of the World, All American and Pot O’Gold sales. We are looking for quality genomic – production – type cattle for these sales!
We will keep you alert as sales are added! Watch the JMS Blog “From Inside the Sale Ring,” the JMS Homepage, and the Jersey Journal for updates.
Do keep in mind that ALL Sales, including Top of the World, Pot O’Gold and All American, consignments need to be turned in by summer’s end because of the details that accompany the cataloging and show entries that come with some of the events. Pot O’Gold consignments must be genomic tested, and samples need to reach the lab by the August 1 deadline to be included. AJCA will pay for 3 samples, as long as one of those is entered in the sale.
Each regional or state sale will be looking to wrap up their consignment list within a few weeks also, so be sure to contact your AJCA / NAJ Area Representative to have your cattle included in the sale closest to you!
Jersey Bid monthly consignment sales will continue as always, the third week of each month.
The 57th National Heifer Sale was held this evening in Alexandria, Va. A great crowd was in attendance, both in the ballroom and online.
Thanks to the breeders who consigned the great heifers to be bid on tonight, as well as the buyers and bidders of the great auction.
This evening’s sale sold 34 head for a series record average of $6,556.
The high selling heifer was also a record price for the National Heifer Series!
A great sale this evening! A tremendous thank you to the entire effort in making this a successful event!
