Reply #57: Devons [View All]

[asteroid2003QQ47]

In the early '70s I bought 2 Devon steers and a heifer from Myron Green in Connecticut.
Jerry Mullen of Tunbridge, Vermont rode down with me and helped me (a rank novice) pick them out.
Old Sturbridge Village in Mass. used to get their Devons from Green. If I could afford them I would keep a few just for pets. At the time I was milking a Jersey and making "diet busting" butter and ice cream, that and and the 50 odd laying hens I had provided me with a lot of good eating, though I had to work my butt off to keep my weight in check.
Thank you very much for your reply.
