Do heifers lactate like cows do?
No. Heifers, being young female cattle, don't lactate until after they've had their first calf, which is typically at 24 months of age. A heifer remains a heifer, from birth, until she's had her first or second calf, whereby she is considered a cow. But until then, heifers don't lactate like cows do, and when they do lactate after birthing a calf, they typically produce less milk than their older counterparts.
