- We have three cows, two goats, a donkey and a sow and pigs. The cows names are the Red Cow, Grey Cow and the Kerry Cow. The cows are tied by their necks with a chain to a stake in a house called the byre. The chains are bought in the shops.
The place where we keep the donkey is called in is called a stable. We never clip the donkey. We give him oats and hay to eat.
