Backyard Cows???

[PotterWatch]

I like cows, but I like goats better,

. I think cleaning up after a backyard goat would be easier and less smelly than a backyard cow...

Goats are easier and cheaper to feed and the cleanup is so much easier also. I have both and the goats are so easy and if you decide to milk the goats dont kick like a cow...lol...Good luck in your decision.

"To be or not to be a livestock owner."

This is a pretty good article from Hobby Farms magazine. I have read others that talk about "miniature" sized animals for the small homestead.

Good Luck.
