ok- unless you have "cutting" horses, I would lean towards cows...........
We used to have mini Zebus. I don't know the English name for this kind of cow, I just know that they are from India and they have big "bumps or lumps" on the back of their neck.
They were easy to care for and they ate the grass that the horses didn't so this was also good for the pasture.
How about "Pigs and cows"?????? *giggle*

ok...got my coffee...lol
in order to keep farm status on the land we have to make 500 dollars either agriculturally or with livestock. i am trying to figure ou the best way to go without taking away from the horses. either two cows or a couple pigs should do it. i just know with the cows their is fencing issues, i would have to give them about an acre for grazing and living, and a bigger shelter. with the pigs i dont need to give up nearly as much land, they dont need to graze and their shelter requirements are way less. as far as the care...both are pretty much the same.lol hubby is leaning towards farming christmas trees....he is such a city boy! lol
