Cows are large animals that produce highly desirable Milk. The Small Barn can house up to 8 cows. Their preferred food is Wheat, but they can survive on Corn if that's all that's available - but they won't be happy. Silage is an even better option than Wheat and is more filling, meaning the cows won't need to be fed as often. Cows can be obtained through the Caring for a Cow quest, or from Pitchfork Jeb's Farmer Supply in the form of a Cow Order.

In order to milk a cow, one requires a Bucket or a Milk-o-Matic 6000.
