A cow’s milk comes from the food she digests and the blood it sustains. A good milker needs a strong jaw to eat well and a large stomach with four compartments, with a wedgeshaped body and broad hips. Large milk veins indicate milking capacity, while ear color and skin texture may hint at fat and butter potential.
