ODE TO SOUTH DEVON CATTLE

A joy sent from heaven
 describes a South Devon
Easy to handle and tender to eat,
makes handling South Devons a real treat.

Equally a good breeder of quality calves,
 with milk, meat and growth, cuts costs by halves.

Work Safe informs us “we must make our workers safe”
Choosing a South Devon helps this relate.
No more kicks, yelling or hurdling the gate,
Choose a South Devon to make your staff safe.

Their quiet temperament help Feed Conversion improve,
Far less methane from them ooze.
We have our South Devon to thank
For putting more dollars into the bank.
