I found out some more about goats. They are one of the only farm animals that can safely eat lantana so worth considering if that’s what you are needing them for. They are also exceptionally hard to keep in and clmb (ie on top of your car if it’s not garaged) so may bring some heartache if you dont have the area adequately fenced.

Cows need a lot of water and a lot of food so just something to consider in the number and access to water. We are looking into getting a handful of smaller breeds of cow and a couple of doorpa sheep (super chill and don’t require sheering).

Goats will eat almost everything so they’re good at clearing weeds and grass etc but some can be a nightmare to keep contained. I’d choose cows

Goats are a massive headache, such escape artists. Sheep will destroy any grass growing in your padfocks. I’d choose cows
