Miniature Cows, Big Advantage

[xyzbrift]

Leave the cows alone

[jabraxxus]

When are all of you that leave these crazy comments gonna wake up and realize, Damn it!!! I AM SUPPOSED TO EAT MEAT!!!!! I have roots in South Carolina though I was raised in NOrth Carolina and could never eat as many beans as you activists would like. Besides you need some ham hocks or a beef shank to flavoe those beans. We have always eaten meat. You can't stop it. I hunt as well and proud of it.

[MonsterMo44]

this country ass montana kids. so cute how they talk. i love the accent

[errbag]

Wake up humanity! You pet and love them, then slit their throats and murder them for food. Completely unnecessary! When will humanity learn. :(

[MrHotshot613]

@errbag We gotta eat man, we need it for our energy, produce just doesn't cut it.

And BTW vegetables are living things too!

[GigglingPsycho]

Wow, there's alot of angry comments on here. Beef doesn't just magically appear in the store already cut and shrink wrapped. I think it's great that these cows get pasture and kids to love on them. Much better than being crammed into a feedlot and never shown any affection.

[MonsterMo44]

@GigglingPsycho GigglingPsycho. despite your name, your comment makes more sense than most that i read on here

[homertalk]

awwwww, how could you eat a mini cow?

[BeOrganicJewelry]

learnt me alot of stuff , oh lawd, He would go outside and scream I would give him the belt

[KenMacMillan]

Stick one in the PBR!

[bond196012]

I like the video and you gave me more to think now cause i am thinking of start a small hobby farm may be i take your word and start with this breed they take less space and i can use more on one acre thank you and i wish to be came friends cause if i start with my hobby farm i would like more education from you thank you .and good luck God bless

[islandoffroadracing]

fuckin vegitarians, why dont you keep to the peta videos

[CitrusFruit]

"This is a treat." That kid is jokes :)

[neilhack10]

Do they also teach the kids how to slaughter innocent animals there ?

[neilhack10]

Freedom Farm? kinda ironic to associate a place where animals throats are slit open with "freedom"

[APEDOG66]

Love it! Didn't know mini cows existed until my husband told me about them. Love he cows and the kids. BTW did anyone notice the picture of the full size "Cow" was a steer? However, I'd rather just skip over the part about their being a more cost effective way to produce "Beef".

[VikyCelta]

Ohh..this's disgusting.....these`people are traitors, all of them..they love mini cows until it's time to eat them....

[fletchneck]

Cows are yummy! I wonder if mini cows are more tastier than their larger counterparts.

[VikyCelta]

@fletchneck haha!! I wonder if you trully are the son of your father...

[fletchneck]

@VikyCelta haha!! I wonder if you "trully" graudated from grammar school.

[VikyCelta]

@fletchneck Oh! No no...I've never attended English grammar school...but I dont care couse English is not my first lenguage and I know engough of it as tu speak with your president. Good luck!

[VikyCelta]

@VikyCelta oh..sorry!!..I wanted to mean "as TO speak...bla bla TO your..bla bla"..forgime please...

[bulldog32220]

@fletchneck actually yes! i have herd of about 30 dexters that are grass fed and pure bred and there meat is of better quality than the lager meat cows due to the fact there is less fat in ther meat and like the video says the meat yelild quanity is higher

[errbag]

@fletchneck Are you?

[IgnoredComment]

the way they appreciate you... you love them, they love you back....

Until its time to meet the guillotine

[Ingiequeen]

Yeah teach them to love and care for there pets...Then eat them! Great! @_@

[gotmilkboy86]

That can save you money can use kids as farm laborers! kidding!

[AnimalAidz]

I hope this video lightens people up on how sweet these animals actually are, and how calm and intelligent.

I Also hope people realise how bad rodeo is, and how sweet these cows are.

Becoming a vegetarian helps 5 animals form death a day.

[Mirlim]

@AnimalAidz Those 5 animals you would save from death will be killed anyway because they no longer serve a purpose if no one eats meat. Short sighted.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim I would keep cows as pets.You are short sighted.Do you eat dogs and cats that get put down?

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Sure you would keep them as pets... I'm sure that mini cows are the next potbelly pig. Responsible animal owners like me will be picking up your mess when you tire of them.

I love the moronic 'do you eat dogs and cats?' question. No, don't eat scavengers or carnivores-- they don't taste good. Also, dogs and cats serve purposes as vermin catchers and assistants/ companions.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim It is ignorant to assume I'm irresponsible with a pet if you don't know me.Many dogs and cats are born due to mass breeding for profit and most don't get those jobs.Many get put down yearly even when healthy.Most American meat eaters would protest dog and cat meat being sold in grocery stores and fast food which proves how hypocritical they are.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 No it doesn't prove anything. It proves less than nothing, in fact. As stated before, even though some severely overpopulated areas, like Asia practice eating dogs... (they eat human fetuses too and placenta so lets add that to the menus here, right?) they are scavengers and carnivores, not meant to be eaten. They don't taste good and they are prone to more issues of meat contamination than herbivores. Nothing you have said has anything to do with anything I stated.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim Meat is meat.Your issue is with taste doesn't count as anything could taste bad to anyone.Your issue with health doesn't count as many meat eaters knowingly eat meat lunches/dinners that they themselves call unhealthy from herbivores.Even a nutritionist would say eating dogs and cats has some health benefits.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Obviously I have made the mistake of tangling with a moron. Not all meat is equal... Or a tomato is the same as a belladonna berry. After all a fruit is a fruit. Just because many people do a thing... that makes it truth or correct now, does it? Mmm can't want to see you jump off the cliff with all the other lemmings!

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim I didn't say all meat was equal based on nutrition or taste.You assume way too much.I said meat is meat.If a meat eater doesn't eat dogs because of nutrition or taste then that is their opinion.If they wont eat dogs because they have a moral problem with it then they are a hypocrite.Many American meat eaters don't eat foxes or sharks but I doubt most have a moral problem with other humans eating them.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Okay... there is no point in what you are saying at all. Basing what I eat on what it's level of intelligence is or its usefulness in other roles is not at all hypocritical. You making any claim to not eating sentient creatures and then maiming and killing plants for your consumption is however. You are either ignorant or willfully delusional if you think that plants are not sentient. So go back to your happy dream, live your thin life and goodbye.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim Your point would be like a cannibal saying it's ok to eat the retards.I have also heard the average pig is smarter then the average dog or cat.If you don't have any moral problem with other humans eating what you call intelligent is or useful or them being sold in grocery stores and fast food then I would say you are not a hypocrite.Plants are unconscious and they don't feel the same way animals do.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 If your main source of nutrition is human flesh then likely it makes sense to eat retards before you eat useful humans. Plants are in fact sentient. You are narrow minded because it suits your ready out of the box typical vegetarian philosophy. No, they don't feel the way animals do, they feel and perceive the way plants do. Did you know that if plants that are genetically related are planted near one another they grow in a cooperative instead of competitive manner?

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim That is a preference but they still could be a hypocrite.Do you have a moral problem with other humans eating dogs,cats and humans?Yes or No.A plant can react to some situations since it's alive.I never implied they couldn't.Plants are highly assumed to not feel physical pain since no mechanism is known by which they could have such a feeling.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 I am glad you are comfortable in your assumptions. I have no moral objections to the eating of dogs and cats, just aesthetic ones. At one point in time is was assumed that the world was flat, that it would kill a person to travel faster than 20 mph and so forth. I doubt you are up on some of the latest research which states plants can anticipate being cut by shears. Or that trees of the same species communicate when infected so other trees can begin protecting themselves.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim If you have a problem with any dogs,cats and humans being eaten then it's hypocritical.How plants or trees react to those things almost certainly has nothing to do with physical pain.A humans body that is sedated and unconscious will react to sickness/injury and try to heal even though it's not in pain.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 You asked if I had a moral issue with it-- no, I have an aesthetic issue with it. Do you even know what the difference is? What does what a sedated human's body have to do with this? Plants manage all that they do without an apparent central nervous system. Again, they are not animals, they are plants, their sentience is different than ours. It's like saying that one culture's perception of creation is more valid than another. Face it your life requires death to fuel it.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim You didn't reply to the eating of humans until now.I would call a aesthetic issue a preference and it has nothing to do with morals so you didn't need to add that.A sedated human is like a unconscious plant as they both react unconsciously that is all I meant.Most American meat eaters I have talked to will admit they are hypocrites as it's obvious.To have any moral problem with another eating any kind of meat when they do it themselves is hypocritical.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Uhh re-read the things you asked... you never even asked whether I objected to the eating of Humans... just dogs or cats. Try this again when not intoxicated or otherwise retarded. You obviously need a dictionary and to look up words like morals and aesthetics, conscious and unconscious and sentient. You have very light and airy notions of their meanings. It's not obvious that meat eaters are hypocrites, likely they admit to it just to get you to shut up.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Correction you did pop humans in there upon re-reading.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 In the end there is no discussion with you. You have your little packaged rebellion, your bumper sticker philosophy and an inability to use 'an' correctly. You have never examined your true reasons for saying what you do. For most people having the claim of vegetarian (which you haven't denied) is so they gain a false sense of superiority. They are lowly, weak and banal. They are not introspective nor are they deep thinkers. They just sit on the surface and never look down.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim You constantly assume and insult and I think I have been quite respectful of you.I have way more respect for meat eaters who aren't hypocrites.I just would never be ok with what they do or condone it.Meat eaters who aren't hypocrites would be viewed as evil by much of American society so very few admit it.Did a vegetarian attack you or are you Dr Phil?

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 No, you have not been respectful. You have ignored much of what I have said and simply insisted on bringing up unrelated points and trying to force them to be relevant. You don't wish to acknowledge that in order for you to live death occurs, no matter what you eat. You have no idea what morals and aesthetics are and refuse to educate yourself. There is no evil, there is what society will punish you for and what fits your aesthetic. Don't talk like a Christian.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim What I ignore is your ridiculous assumptions.The points are related but you seem too slow to understand them.You already said you don't have a moral problem so that alone would get you viewed as evil by many American meat eaters.There may be no evil in the sense it's a point of view but there is definitely hypocritical actions.Unless you have your head up your ass and can't see them.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Learn when you should use 'are' instead of 'is'.You have made plenty of outlandish assumptions.You have blinders on and are stuck on this hypocritical bent. If a person can justify their point of view( which you can't)it's not hypocritical. You can't condone the eating of animals but you refuse to see that you still kill in order to live because you choose to ignore anything outside of your neat little box. You can't even acknowledge sentience that is dissimilar to your own.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim If a vegetarian says I eat fruit but I think it is morally wrong to eat other types of fruit then that is hypocritical and ridiculous.That is the same kind of statement the majority of meat eaters make about meat.If you can't understand that then you are stupid.Stop bringing up unrelated points and trying to force them to be relevant.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Stop responding, moron--- because that's the only way what you wish will occur. Obviously you are too stupid to realize the only reason I am saying anything is not because I give a damn about the argument. I am doing it because you just can't stop replying, no matter what I say. Seriously? You didn't pick up on that at all? Another dumb ass with an agenda he wishes to shove down everyone's unwilling throat. Congratulations on your level of fail!

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim You can't win the argument so if was you I wouldn't try either.I will just call you names and make up stuff about you.lol

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Making up stuff arbitrarily is all you have been doing. Still don't get that there is no argument? Hmmm well I guess you can't actually help it. All the worthwhile people have left Ca, only stubby looking fags like you still live there.

[danthemanfresno2006]

@Mirlim There is no argument as you don't have one.You are a pedophile.hahahaha

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 I understand how disappointing your life must be, years of fantasizing about your father's c0ck and never once did he violate you with it. Sad yes, but don't push your dreams on me as I am even less likely to fulfill your desires as I am female and have no male naughty bits.

[Mirlim]

@danthemanfresno2006 Wow... nothing more? Truth stings your stubby ass, doesn't it?

[theSTAR70]

mini cattle, and mini cattle rustlers !!!

[cbesco2]

learnt (lûrnt)

v. A past tense and a past participle of learn. just to clear up this up.... learnt is a word so there for is proper enlish

[gryphonkeen]

*"Therefore" is the correct spelling and "ain't" is in some dictionaries but it's not proper grammar either.

[Imyourfather69]

Awesome, I bet I can eat a single mini cow in a week.

[stretch34318]

it costs more to dress many smaller cows vs. fewer larger cows so you would think they wouldn't make as much money for the same amount of beef produced.

[Otox]

Probably they do cost a little more to dress per pound of meat, but they cost far, far less to raise (about 1/6th as much as a full-size cow according to this video), so they're really a lot more efficient overall.

[Ringo0008]

This makes me want to become a vegetarian!

[gschjetne]

Provided the dwarfism isn't bothering the cattle, it looks like these critters have a pretty good life. The same can't be said about all cattle ranches.

[Otox]

Oh, they're not necessarily dwarfs. Some miniature cattle breeds *were* created by specifically breeding dwarfism into existing breeds, but most were just small to begin with, or just bred smaller the normal way.

[mundymanor]

I eat meat, but I know I could never raise these cute little suckers for slaughter. I'll have to git me a milkin' cow. And when she's too old to milk, she'll be allowed to live out the rest of her years. I know my kids will give her a proper Christian burial. Chuckle.

;-)

[oakstorm]

Hahaha just to let you know a dairy cow is alot of work.. and dont fall for the cute face of a jersey cus they a such a sour breed of cows.

[mundymanor]

Well maybe you have a point!

(Say, what is a NON-sour breed of cow??)

[oakstorm]

Oh sorry.. they are a real sour breed.. they are what you would call bullys.. lol They may be small but they sure can fight..

[mundymanor]

Yeah, what I mean is, is there a friendlier ("non-sour") small breed of cow? Or are all cows sour bullies, no matter what?

Maybe I'll stick with goat milk. I was just thinking a little cow would be easier, as they don't fly over fences and climb on cars.

[oakstorm]

I have met goats that leave dents on cars lol as they like to climb. jersey they are bullies but they are so cute.. and after you halter train them they will be fine!

[cammarkgross]

They are sooo cute!!

[109367]

Too bad they are moving to TN, they used to just be a 45 minute drive from my house, I wanted one :(

[Piscivorus]

Poor cows. :(

[oakstorm]

I would love to cross breed a dexter with a holstein and thru out the years have a pure bread mini holstein. Id totaly show her at out local dairy shows! great video!

[chiniwillly]

that was like a dream of mine!!

[gschjetne]

I was just wondering about that. Is there such a thing as a minature dairy breed?

Of course, even a single dairy cow is a full time job. How long can a couple of beef cattle be left alone in a pasture, given access to food, water and shelter?

[oakstorm]

I know it will take years to get it done.Cus you wouldnt want to be the person that breed minature dairy cattle with the worst comformation.I know if i do try this it has to be done right. But its only all talk for now! You know beef cattle are great, they last forever.. As long as they have a water and the pasture is big enough.. Winter haybales. But you would have to bring them in doors for calving time. And shelter they dont need they are hardy animals!

[CowsAndCrows]

yes theres a minature dairy version, Minature Jerseys, they are apparently the most calm, even the bulls are docile. Not to mention the calves are so adorable. and they have the colouring of the large jersey breed. :)

[graceg1971]

You are a very ignorant person. These are just children, it does NOT matter if they are hillbillies... they are CHILDREN. If you believe in God, think about the consequences of your behavior... in the end... when you want his forgiveness. I am not a religious person, but I treat people as I would like them to treat me... stop Hating as they say on the internet and learn to be a HUMAN being.

[boobytrapzap]

"learnt me patience and learnt me a lot of stuff"

didn't learn you how to speak english

[i69edurmum]

teach

[boobytrapzap]

yes, I do.

[fucksalottasluts]

"You've done been learning them wrongs." I didn't realize hillbilly/redneck was an accepted dialect to teach now.

[boobytrapzap]

I didn't realize you were a dick.

[fucksalottasluts]

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle, GO JOE!

I see you are a daft twat along with being an inept teacher, congratulations on your giant FAIL.

[boobytrapzap]

Allow me to properly explain failure. As you can see, I pointed out that these kids can't speak English. At all. Then, I admit to teaching, so you assume both I teach "hillbilly" and that I teach these quite obviously uneducated children. In light of this assumption, you come to the conclusion that I am an inept teacher. Now, the fault in this is that you based your supposed facts on an assumption. You need more solid evidence to make facts, therefore you fail. Enjoy your fail, faggot.

[fucksalottasluts]

If we are going to point out assumptions and failures, allow me to explain your fail. First off your inability to recognize sarcasm. Secondly your immediate ad hominem attack on me. If your original comment had been "didn't learnt you how to speak English" it would have obviously been a joke. Instead you made just as erroneous an error as the uneducated children in the video. Maybe it was just a typo. Two typos actually, English is a proper noun. But you know that right?

[fucksalottasluts]

And you have nothing to assume you know my sexuality, yet you incessantly try to slander me with bigoted remarks. Not that sexuality has anything to do with this. Are we making a straw man fallacy to go along with our ad hom? How cute.

[Mirlim]

@fucksalottasluts I would just like to point out to you that being a faggot has nothing to do with being gay. It has to do with being an asshole. Both of you twats should try and listen to inner city children speak before holding too much over the heads of these children.

NEWSFLASH: Sarcasm doesn't work all that well in text only circumstances. A large component of this base, lowly form of humor is tone and delivery.

[fucksalottasluts]

@Mirlim Internet, srs bsns. I like the sarcasm in text explaining how sarcasm in text doesn't work well. Self deprecating humor, you has it, faggot. Now, am I using "faggot" as a derogatory term for a homosexual, or am I calling you an asshole? Seems like if I wanted to call you an asshole, I'd just call you an asshole, eh, asshole?

[Mirlim]

@fucksalottasluts Yeah... that would be an example of how to use sarcasm in text and do it well. I think faggot and asshole are just a little too mild to describe people like you--- Fagtard, yes, that is your new title. Wear it with pride.

[fucksalottasluts]

@Mirlim So you're better at "this base, lowly form of humor"? YOU WIN AT SARCASM! AWESOME! YOU ARE THE FUCKING BEST THING EVAAAARRRR! CAN I HAVE YOUR BABIES? I need them for soup.

[Mirlim]

@fucksalottasluts yes... in fact I am better at this lowly form of humor. And no, you may not have my babies... I am growing them to roasting age--- why waste good tender meat in soup? Soup is for old bony people you find on the side of the road.

[driverain2]

I don't know bout all dat shit but you are a arshole, anyway you say it..............

[tweedlebeetles]

"Learn" is archaic, but it was entirely proper to use it as in "to teach", once upon a time. So, them thar country folk way over yonder are stickin to their guns on talkin proper-like better'n y'all.

[starlight1946]

This is really an interesting and cute video.

[Braveheart1984]

What cute cows. I'd love a Dexter as a pet.

[aesthector]

too cute

who would want to eat them?

poor moozers

[noahwhales]

so thats where white castle gets their burgers

[crabtrap]

nope! think even smaller and non furry tail,that's where whire castle gets it's "burgers"

[georgef35]

Why eat one of the most important animals?

[loneless]

"Learnt you a lotta stuff" Sure as shit didn't "learnt" you how to speak.

[accepted666]

you would think that they would...LOL. Makes me wonder if they are able to make more money and save more money, whey they never learned to educate themselves. Even correspondence classes are cheap and available.

[Mirlim]

@loneless Yes, because cows are masters of English. Of course you use only proper English when you speak. You never use colloquialisms, slang or any other relaxed manner of speech. When the Zombies come, what serves you as a brain will be eaten-- these people you sneer at will have food shelter and live generally good lives despite the Zombies. Enjoy your sense of superiority while you can.

[loneless]

i dont understand.. so the mini-cow produces 60% more meat, and the regular cow produces 50% meat.. but the regular cow is about 3 times as bigger than the mini-cow, so regular cows do give more meat.. right?

[accepted666]

Bone structure on a traditional cow is larger then a dexter, there is more waste when a larger breed is slaughtered. I ranched for many years and this meat is really amazingly good.

[cowhand07]

it costs 3700 bucks a year to maintain one head? That is ridiculous, that means if you weaned a 500 lb calf for five years you would be roughly 16,000 bucks in the hole. wall street journal?

[shopken1]

670 per head

[crabtrap]

i get $18500 to raise for 5 years . this sounds like factory farm bullshit to me . you're not going to sell an angus for anywhere near that . i call bullshit

[tarre5]

I want a minimoo! Where is the best place to find an inexpensive one or two or three...?

[TexasCattlewoman]

Great video! Have a problem child, put them in 4-H and give them an animal project. Can be cattle, pigs, goats, sheep or rabbits. I've personally seen children transformed by the responsibility of caring for their animals. Contact your local County Extension Agent for the names of local 4H clubs.

[AlliWalker]

I show horses, its fun. :D

[hmms4]

what happend to the cows teeth?

[mkmallory]

cows dont actually have incisors

[matran2]

first

[andreiavila]

cool miniature cow...
