The issue with having your own animals is dealing with illness. It's all-too easy to lose a cow to something simple and then scrambling to replace the dead one.
I'm 100% with you on this but that's my one stopping point because I can't afford to replace an animal I've lost and the medications that vets used to be able to give out relatively freely in Canada have become much more regulated in the past ten years or so.
All our animals are raised on pasture and rotationally grazed. We provide good food, minerals, fresh water and a healthy environment. We don't vaccinate. Over two years into this we have had many births and no losses to illness (other than chickens).
Many people need to learn from you. You should plan a weekly or monthly date to talk, and go to cornychat.com and set up a homesteading room and help other homesteaders give tips to people on all this wealth of knowledge.

You are kind. I will look into it.
