How'd we get started with American Lineback Dairy Cattle??

We got started with Linebacks back in 2002, when our oldest daughter Royell was at the age of 9, and looking for her first 4-H animal. We purchased two calves both under one month old, from the Don Marsh,of Marathon, NY. "Marsh's Precious" (Royell's calf- who would later go on to greatly impact the American Lineback Breed- she is Pro's Dam) and "Marsh's Marble".



We milk 2X a day in a double 10 herringbone parlor and free stalls. We have approximately  250 cows milking.  

A little under 2/3 the milking herd is Holsteins and Red and Whites, 1/3 are Linebacks and few Milking Shorthorns,  Jerseys,  Crossbreds of all flavors mixed in.  Hence- "A herd of many colors."

Prior to moving to our the free stall set up we use to classify Linebacks and colored cows twice a year. (through the brown swiss association)  Our dairy is on DHIA and our "herd average" is approximately 21,000m. as of February of 2022!



Some information you might find interesting to know about our Lineback Dairy Cattle; We have sold Linebacks as far North as New York, Connecticut, and Wisconsin. And as far south as North Carolina, Louisiana. We also have sold bulls to Puerto Rico and many places in between. Lineback semen is another thing we sell and we are ecstatic to be able to say we have sold Lineback semen all across the United States!

 We feel blessed and very fortunate to have had great success with many, many repeat buyers. 



Plenty-Good Dairy would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the  buyers of Lineback Cattle and Semen

 Please contact us with your Lineback needs for the future and beyond!


 We also want to say a big THANK YOU to our oldest daughter Royell-for helping us create this website and a facebook profile years ago, (without her input, sometimes we would'nt know what to do)  -Love, Mom & Dad
