Ten Miniature Cattle Breeds for your Small Farm

These are beyond cool. Each cow needs about one half acre, but there are a couple types that can do well on a quarter acre. We're going with the Dexter, excellent for both milk and meat. I've bought puppies for the same amount I can get a bred Dexter for and am looking forward to our cow. Our running joke for chickens, rabbits, goats, etc. -- boys are dinner. They're still at the 'boys, eewww' age, so they get a giggle out of that.
