The project manager for this initiative is Mr. Caustic Burno, a member of this board, and we would be interested in hearing just how "miniature" you can get these cattle.
Our shareholders would of course be willing to compensate you for any research and development costs, but you would have to accept primary bovine by-product as payment.
Thank you for your time.

Smaller cattle produce less meat and more waste as a percentage, than their larger cousins. Arguing that a 900lb Lowline takes up less space than a 1300lb Angus steer is ridiculous. I spoke with a breeder of miniature horses a couple of years ago. In order to get the small, cute size, they would breed back to the same stud over several generations. Apparently, birth defects aren't a concern, as long as dumba** 1-2 acre ranchers are willing to buy these animals. If you hadn't guessed, I am 100% against Lowlines, mini Herefords, or any other freak of nature.
