[Question] If you could keep only one farm animal, which would you choose?
[MB] I’d consider keeping the sheep because the breed that we have (Islandics) is triple-purpose: they give meat, wool, and milk. So we could have wool for clothing and blankets and such, meat for eating, and milk for cheese and yogurt. Plus if we learned how to tan the hides, we’d have those. Lastly, the sheep could eat all the grass in the yard (about 1.5 acres), so we wouldn’t have to cut the grass.
