Longhorn Cow Milk
Milking a Texas Legend
Ami is a pure Texas Longhorn, registered with the
CTLR
. I think everyone was laughing a bit when I told them I would milk her. Everyone we have told either shakes their heads like I am crazy, or tells me to get a Jersey cow. But why not milk the cow you have? If Longhorn meat is so far superior to other commercial cows, what about the milk? Surely it must be good too, to produce such lively, long-lived, healthy and strong cattle. So we have been milking Ami for a couple weeks now, and I can tell you that it has been a pleasure and a learning experience. I feel more satisfied in this than I could possibly have imagined.
