[QUOTE="cowadle, post: 2280732, member: 7203"] cattle> one mature cow needs aprox 4 acres in this area of forage to exist.she will drink at least 20 gallons of water per day,she cycles in fertility every 21 days and takes 10 months to produce one calf, a beef cow will give on average of 8 pounds of milk per day but will have much more butterfat than a dairy cow. her heifer calf will breed at 15 month of age but you better hold her off so she will calve at three unless you have a lot of feed. pigs have a 12 piglet liter and can have two litters per year and breed back at 6 months old. a sow will live off of your dead chickens table scraps and the left over corn in the cows manure. a sow will provide you with meat and fat. the cow will give you meat and fat and milk protein all converted from grass. the cow is more efficient in a wider range than the pig as far as nutrition and feed are concerned. you have to have a pig to get Bacon to wrap around that eye of the rib or filet.
