Dexter Cattle
Pound for pound, no other breed of cattle can match the efficiency of Dexter cattle. Standing just 36 to 44 inches at the shoulder, Dexters are the perfect old-fashioned, family cow. Gentle, versatile and economical, Dexters efficiently turn pasture into rich milk and lean meat. One Dexter cow will give about 1 to 2 gallons of milk a day, perfect for a family trying to produce their own food on a small acreage. The stature of these little cattle also makes them safer and less intimidating to children and inexperienced adults.
