You don't prefer mor milking breed , like the Holstein?

I'm not ready to be milking anything full-time. Right now we're more of a petting farm and education center for the city kids and adults. The staff favorite was when I pretended to be a robot and spouted off egg facts in my robot voice.

I would like to try using goats milk for soap. I don't usually enjoy goat cheese, so I'm not thinking of consumption fight now. But it would be fun to make goat butter, if that's even a thing.

But if you will have a nice cow, you could use her as a learning tool and as a milk source that will ease the bil.
In Israel an average cow gives 11,400 liters of milk annually! Let say that you will get the half, 5700 liters it will satisfy
All your milk needed in the farm, and you csn also make some cheese! Win-win-win (- alot of work ) situation!

We're on a five-year plan, by the fifth year hoping to be raising our own beef and pork. I can get people to feed the animals, but who will milk? I'm still young Benny! I like to travel!

I order 12-20 gallons of milk a week in the summer. I'd have to have my own dairy for that.

Another cost. Apparently if you have a tire go bad that is under warranty they cover that tire, but not the other three that have to be replaced by default if you have a four wheel drive pick-up.

Have you priced 10 ply all terrain tires lately
