Ostriches and Cats would be cool and shouldnt the meat sheep be called lamb? Ostriches could be a later game alternitive to hourses as they can also lay ostrich eggs they would be more usefull (harvest moon has ostriches) Cats could protect against pests or help you around the farm like they do in harvest moon
That's true, I mean you can't milk steers or bulls so you have to use them for meat. Or reproduction... But yeah all the female cows would be the "dairy cows". You could have hens for eggs and males for yummy chicken.
Unsure if killing livestocks will be in-game. Of all the series of RF and HM, I've never seen one that actually had livestock butchering, unless you send those livestocks to the butcher of SV or something
I don't ever remember any meat in a HM game, would open up the cooking skill a lot if there was though. Not sure I'm a fan of having 2 versions of every animal though, beyond male and female that is. Male for meat female for most produce in general.
