It depends if you (or the market you wish to supply) is lactose intolerant, if not, Holstein cows are the best producers of milk. Saanen goats are the highest producing goats and people with digestive problems related to milk consumption can usually digest goat milk with little or no problems. I do not know anything about milking sheep though, sorry for not being any help on the latter. Other things you should consider if you are wishing to purchase cows for milk would be if quota is required to sell the milk later (It is in some countries and may cost more than you would expect), and how much feed and water they consume (it may surprise you) hope this helps

I raise cows and goats but have no experience whatsoever with sheep
