I let one of those stoves go to the lawyer / foreclosure. Sorry, I tried to find it a good home. Now I feel sad I can't crate it up and ship it to you.
With your family being the size it is (height-wise) I really suggest going the route of goats and sheep and not cows. Cows are really really much bigger. They are harder on the farm furniture and harder on the farm hands. Unless you really miss beef for some reason, I wouldn't recommend it until monster truck is taller than the knee of a grasshopper.
I love garter snakes. I wish all snakes were nice like garter snakes. But, this here country belongs to rattle snakes.
Thanks for the advice, and too bad about that stove!
As for cows, we were looking into Dexter cattle, because they are a short-legged breed.
Dragon milk! :D
