Barnyard Products - Cows and Cattle
in Animals on the Farm
Raising cattle is not for the faint-hearted - they require a gentle hand and thrive on punctuality and routine.
Both dairy and beef cattle can be challenging and are equally rewarding.
Most of my family who farm are raising beef cattle and the word is that there's a lot less money, but a lot less work, in beef cattle.
Dairy cattle farmers fare better if they have access to cheap labor (their own children with great work ethics?) or high priced supplies in the barn.
Money and hard work aside, it simply makes sense to raise your own beef if you have the room and a love for the animal (research proves that an animal owned and treated with kindness will fare better and produce a higher quality product for his or her owners).
Cows are gentle creatures who deserve great respect for their patience and sacrifices to humans.
If you are raising cattle for meat, milk, or market you'll find that the cow, calf or bull that is raised with care is the one who'll produce the most valuable end product.

I've spent years now shopping around for the best deals on farm supplies for all the animals we raise here. Specials come and go - and still they can't compare with the deals you can find on eBay.
