We're going to be having a BIRTHSTONE EVENT very soon in either late August or early September.

Our great colorists are working on it as we speak. There will most likely be a flatsale, raffle/flaffle and auction for the cuties. So keep your eyes open. So decide your favorite month now!

MOO INFO AND STORY (FAQ)

How do I get a Ben & Jersey cow?
Through flatsales, raffles and other special events. Customs may come later, but it's pending the success of the shop.

Q: HOW DID BEN & JERSEY'S COME ABOUT?

A: It all started one day on a McKenzie's farm just outside Durem
on Gaia's east side. It was a normal afternoon when Mr. McKenzie prepared to milk his cows, but it was anything but ordinary on the cow's behalf.

Years of humiliation, having a strange man in a woolen flap-hat and worn-jean overalls approach them to touch their teats with his cold fingers and indifferent air as he pulled painfully on each. Oh and then there was that monstrosity - the milking machine. Try sitting while you feel your stomach being sucked into a
large vat while you pretend not to notice.

The cows had had enough, it was time to rise up and show the farmer in the dell who the real boss was.

As he came into the barn, he was shocked to see a line of cows standing on their hind legs, their front hooves on their hips - eyeing him, objectionably. He dropped his metal bucket, noisly on the cement floor.

"Wha...what the sam hell...?!" he cried, his mind racing.

Slowly, from the darkened wings of the barn door appeared the large, male bull - obviously in command.

"That's right, you better tremble in fear old man, there is going to be some changes around here. Starting with that machine of yours, either you take it to the scrap yard or I'll take you with it on the tips of my horns!"

The man stumbled back, then coming to his senses - turned and ran for his house. He was screaming the whole voyage back.

One female cow snickered to the other.

"Well, that went well!"

(A month later):

It wasn't too long before other cows caught drift of the revolution forming amongst their ranks. Soon cows across Gaia were leading a protest, refusing to let their udders be milked, their numbers be slaughtered for beef.

The media covered the growing resentment and vegetarians backed the cows, joining them on the picket lines around the country.

It was then that the head of the vegetarian movement came forward, donating a sizable chunk of money to the Cow Unitarian Front or CUF. The money was put towards cows who wished to form their own business and become enterpeneurs.

Thus Ben & Jersey's was born - straight from the cow to you!

Q: How much do the cows cost?
A: 3K each in flatsales. Most raffles will have tickets either free or for 500g each. Customs, I'm not sure yet - maybe for pet trades, donation letters or such.

Q: When is the next flatsale
A: Flatsales are pretty much at every holiday and whenever I get time to do so. I can be bribed if there is no flatsale though, check the bribe list for Info.

Q: Do you have to RP the pet?
A: This is an RP-Optional zone, you don't have to here, take the pet with my good will and enjoy it. Keep in mind they do grow slower than RP'd pets and get less offspring. Their are other benefits to Rp such as familiars, items, and more stages.

Q: Do you do customs?
A: Yes, I will. Customs will cost a bit more 40k for a color custom, depending on the colorists involved. If you wish to reserve a customs slot, please let me know. These will be the slots available, If this list is full or closed you can ask to be on the waiting list. Due to the fact that Presca's scanner is in the shop, we are no longer doing cosplays at this time. Sorry.

Q: Do you accept trades - pet or otherwise - for a cow?
A: We do accept art trades and pet trades. In addition I also have bribe slots if Customs are closed.

Items:
Just ask...

Q: Do you have a mailing list?
A: I did but that has been discontinued due to lack of time.

Moaners or OWNERS

This is a list that will be regularly updated with the current owners of each cow and their names. If you don't find your name on this list, let me know and I'll fix it. Thanks to Venus_Starshine for the cute little dancing cow!

Please remember, after the cow becomes an adult - you host it yourself. I borrowed the list format from Sneeps, very organized. I'll no longer list stage as it's too hard to keep up with, for now it's just the owner, cow's name and gender.

*NOTE - If you have a cow that has not grown in some time - please contact Bob or Presca to remedy the matter. The list below is one that shows several different generations of cows and owners. Some owners may appear more than once.
