Yes. However the more inexperienced bulls may decide to stick with only one cow. But if there's a herd of more than a hundred, then a bull certainly has his work cut out for him!

How many times does the Bull mate with the same cow?
Only once is necessary to get her settled. However, during a heat period, one cow can be bred to multiple bulls (if there are that many) more than once during her heat period.
Do bulls only mate with cows once?
The more experienced bulls will. And usually yes, though sometimes if there's more than one bull around...
Why are bulls so dangerous?
One word: TESTOSTERONE. Bulls are dangerous and unpredictable because of one of two things: jealousy and protection over their girls (the cows), and because they really really want to eat. Bulls that can smell a cow in heat and are being herded through a corral can become quite exited, and do as best as he can to get to that cow that "needs" him. Bulls are also dangerous if they don't respect you, and if they realize they are bigger and stronger than you and constantly challenge you. Challenging bulls get a one-way ticket to the slaughterhouse on my farm.
Is it wrong to say bull cow?
Yes. For one, there's no such thing as a "bull cow," and two, a cow is never a bull nor is a bull ever a cow. Cows are mature female bovines, whereas bulls are intact male bovines. It's either or, not one with the other.
How often do cows and bulls mate?
Typically a ranch's breeding period occurs only once a year. However, some ranches opt to have two breeding seasons a year, with a different herd of cows per breeding season, but using the same bulls for each breeding period. A typical cow should only be bred once to be settled, but if there are more than one bull in the herd at the time, she can be ridden more than once. Bulls, on the other hand, are the more sexually active of the cowherd, and will be very active breeding anywhere from 25 to 50 females in a breeding season.

Is there only one gender of the animal bull?
A bull is a male cattle. A female cattle is called a cow. So, yes, bulls can only be one gender - male.
Why is a bull a herbivore?
Bulls are herbivores because they are merely the male or masculine version of the cow, which is a female mature bovine that has given birth to one or two calves. Cows are herbivores, which mean they only eat vegetation like grass, thus bulls are also herbivores as well. Thus, bulls also only eat grass, like a cow would.
How do elk reproduce?
Bull elk tend to form harems of 5 to 20 females or cow elk and protect them during the rutting season. Bulls protect their harems from competing males, and often fights occur between bulls of similar body and antler size, or when young bulls get super confident in themselves and decide they can take on the older bulls. Bulls mate with the cows much like any cloven-hooved mammals mate including domestic cattle, moose, deer, bison, pigs, etc. Intercourse between the bull and cow only takes a few seconds, because if it went any longer another bull could come along and toss him off of the cow.
Why would you mate your cows to multiple sires?
This would only be done through the use of artificial insemination, and for an entire cow herd, not just one lonely cow. One cow will be bred to one sire, another couple cows will be bred to another sire, etc.
Are bulls a kind of cow?
Colloquially speaking, yes. Technically and practically speaking, no. Bulls are the opposite sex of a cow: a cow is a mature female bovine that has had at least one or two calves. Bulls are intact male bovines that breed cows. Both, as explained previously, are names for the mature adults of either sex of the domestic bovine species Bos primigenius.
When are pit bulls ready to breed?
Males are always ready to mate but the female is the one you should pay attention for the period she can mate. Females will fight a male dog if they are not ready to mate.

What is bigger cow or cattle?
Cows are cattle, as they are females only, while bulls are male cattle. Therefore, you cannot say for certain which is larger as one is a grouping, the other a specific gender of the species. Bulls are usually larger than cows, especially if referring to cows and bulls of the same breed, and not between breeds.
