Photo is deceiving he's up on a hill he is only 39 in from the ground to his shoulders. He's like a big dog wants to be petted scratch his his neck scratch his belly when laying down. Comes running when sees me I always have a treat for him. I have 3 of them1 bull 2 heifers all small.
This picture shows size differences between full size Zebu and mini. This is not me or my mini but show the huge difference in size. The little one is full grown

Wow, that picture really is deceiving!
Glad you're getting your questions answered. 1 or 2 guys around here know what they are talking about - you just have to pick out the right ones

Awesome.
As a side job/hobby, I am a R+/free shape clicker trainer, so I could teach Sid all sorts of tricks LOL. I usually work with service dogs, therapy dogs, or search and rescue type dogs, but I've goofed around with all sorts of critters for fun given the chance - but never a Zebu.
I unfortunately have never been able to teach any of them how to make beer though.

I bet you could he's smart as hell when I first got him he was a bit wild . I talked to a breeder he told me when gets out off control flip him in the nose dont hurt him but get his attention it's his only weakness.
I did 2 or 3 times over a few months and yelled NO!! Ever since if he gets wild I yell NO and believe it or not he always stops and goes away .
They are on 39 to 40 inches tall they still have horns and Sid is about 275+ lbs so they can hurt you if they want

Clay, cool animal but I can't show that pic to the wife, then she would want one
We had a petting Zoo at our farmstand at one time with all kinds of different animals including a emu. As far as brewing stuff, lot's of good knowledge here and good people that want to help you to make better each time. Almost all started as you are now. Keep posting and asking questions.
