Have a farmer near here that raises Galloways. Locals just call them Oreos. We raised Charolais years ago. I am convinced they are the breed behind the Cow jumped over the moon rhyme. They can clear a six foot gate from a standing start. And they actually glow in moonlight. .eerie beasts. Angus are the breed of choice in this area now. As far as the milking breeds Holsteins rule the milking parlor. The bulls have among the worst reputations of any breed among locals. Many of the Amish farmers are getting out of the dairy cattle business and buying dairy goats. The demand for milk has really gone up. Part of this is due to the popularity of goat cheese and goat milk yogurt. And the expenses of raising goats vs cattle is a lot. Sorry I tend to wander off subject in the blink of an eye.
'Rereading this, it sounds like I meant it is more expensive to raise goats than cattle. Nope, just the opposite.
