A freemartin, a cystic cow, or a dry cow. The other type of "cow" you would also be referring to is a bull or a steer.

An unbreed cow (Heifer is the term for a cow that has not given birth less then two years old). But once a cow gives birth she should provide milk for the calf. They will 'Dry' up and stop producing milk as the calf is weaned and she no longer has to nurse it but usually by then she has already been breed again and will give birth to a nother calf in a few months.

These cows that can't produce milk are known as (called something like this) free-martyrs, this only normally happens when a cow, known as a heifer (name of a female cow that has not given her first calf or milk) is a twin with a bull calf (a male cow). Im not sure how this happens but it is to do with featal development.

Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

A Milk Dud.

On a more serious note:A cow that doesn't produce milk is called a dry cow, or any other bovine that cannot produce milk, like bulls, steers, calves and young heifers.

That cow could be not a cow at all, but a bull or a steer, also bovines but the male counterparts of the mature female bovine that is a cow. Heifers don't count because they won't never give milk, and because they are simply immature female bovines that will, at some point in their lives, be bred to give birth to a calf and thus give milk. It's not uncommon for someone unfamiliar with cattle to call a bull or a steer a "cow" and wonder why it is not giving milk. The answer should be obvious: Male mammals never give milk in the lactational, mammary-gland-producing sense.

A cow who is not producing milk is said to be not lactating.

A bull? Cows are mammals, so they all give milk. If you mean a cow for meat then it is a beef cow, but she still gives milk.

How much milk does a cow produce in a week?

A young cow can produce 25 gallons of milk a week. A jersey cow, 28 gallons per week. Guess it depends on the size of the cow. And no, cows that stand in the shade do NOT give chocolate milk. :) My parents Holsteins were giving approximately 40-49 gal a week. My Jersey on silage will produce 35gal per week. On grain and hay she will produce 28gal per week. How much a cow produces depends a lot on what they are being fed and how stressed they are. A happy cow will give more milk than an unhappy cow, and the higher the quality of the feed, the more milk they are able to produce.
