As you progress into the cattle business (assuming you're doing calving and finishing like us) you'll have steers you could use as companion animals as well.

Depending upon your target calving/lambing windows you try to hit you'll probably have periods where the ram and/or bull get put into service leaving the other alone.

We target shooting lambing and calving which means summer cattle breeding and late fall sheep breeding.

Pigs will want to bond with ruminants but it's not a strong mutual desire in our experience--depends on the personalities between the species.
