Interesting.

I need some cattle for a small place, maybe I need to research this a bit.

However, I don’t want cows in the garden! They trample the foodstuff. I want cows in the pasture. LOL

Get goats. They taste good and are a lot easier to keep. Plus they don't leave giant poo patties all over the place, and pack down the soil so hard nothing is able to take root any longer.

A pinscar is a better smaller cow, much better meat, like a red or black angus. A 2 year old will get to be around 700 lbs.

Another small all purpose cow that used to be in every farmers yard was a cow called a Canadiana. There aren’t many Canadiana’s around anymore however, might be hard to get.
