At almost every show that the mini cows attend, there are other miniature cows (although mini Herefords are the best!).  This year the mini cows met several new friends from the miniature Zebu group.  The Zebus look VERY different from my minis and are smaller than I am in most cases!!  They are used in third world countries as an all around utility animal - pulling, packing, milking, etc and are dressed up for ceremonial events.  The American Zebus honor that tradition by hosting a costum contest.  This was the mini's friend TJ (not to be confused with TJ the bull) and his Zebu "Pretty Girl".  Pretty Girl was dressed as a butterfly fairy
