Do you have pasture? If not you will need hay, some rich hay like alfalfa for milk production, a shelter for them to get out of the wind at least. Barn access is better. You'll need a copper or stainless bucket if you plan to milk, and a milking stool. Shots for the calf and a vet check for both. And you'll want halters and a lead rope, Rope halters are fine for cows. 10 bucks each and 10 for a lead rope. That's about it. I don't know anyone who grains their dairy cows.

lake lady EVERYONE with a commercial herd feeds grain - a single cow in the peak of production can eat THIRTY POUNDS of GRAIN A DAY
