"Yellow-hammer cows" are not specifically animals of the bovine species, but rather a reference to the community of the world (which fits the acronym C.O.W) and how they are trying to keep up with changing technology, comparing this webpage with that webpage or this software with that software, etc.

However, the term "yellow hammer cows" that you are thinking of have come from Patrick Smith's book called "A Land Remembered" where it mentions about wild "yellowhammer" cattle, which may be in reference local name (or the author's coined name) for the Florida Cracker/Pineywoods/Scrub cattle that live[d] there in Florida.
