Yeah it probably is German. America is a "world melting pot." So most things emigrated in. Farmers probably named the the cows that because they they needed a whole..."stein von das Bier" when they finally got them in for milking at night. Cows are dumb...heheSeeking Where My Alien & Mysterious Sis Has gone???

Yes, it is. I did some research on cows. The brown-white ones are used for both (meat and milk) and the black-white ones are used for milk (they give most). Both come from Germany.

I'm not suprised to hear they're both German. For the Holsteins my Dad raised, he would use some young stock for meat and most for milkers/breeding. But it is true that the Herefords are used for beef. That breed is more pronounced out west, whereas the ones you find in NY where I came from are more what my family had.Seeking Where My Alien & Mysterious Sis Has gone???

Yes, here aswell. Especially the cheap imports spoil it for them (and also the crazy weather in the recent years). The worst situation is for the farmers in the mountains, some of them are really poor.
