Hugh - I don't think that many people realize that it's been proven that a dairy herd will produce more milk listening to classical music than any other kind of music as opposed to not having any music playing at all. Second on the list is country music, which is in our barn. Then comes the no music, then it goes downhill from there with rock, heavy metal, rap, etc. That stuff sounds like a machine about to break down when I hear it. Hate it. Anyway, anybody who thinks it's strange or weird when they hear about talking to cows don't know anything about it. You have to talk to them and touch them every chance you get. Makes for a much nicer and easy handling herd. When I walk down the mangers, most if not all of the girls have their heads up and I make sure I touch them on the side of the face or nose or whatever. They look forward to it, it's obvious. Anyway, to all the city folk out there who are confused - visit your nearest cattle/dairy farmer and you'll see a whole new outtake on things - mainly life.
