What is the ability of a cow?
The mothering ability of a cow is a term that means how fast that cow (or even heifer) is able to bond with her calf and accept that calf once born. It is a term that encompasses the protective ability and maternal instincts that a cow should have upon having her calf, and is a term that is used in regards to beef breeding herds. A cow with strong mothering ability is a cow worth keeping, but a cow that is protective over her calf towards people is one to be very careful about.

How do you get a beef cow to accept a calf that isn't hers?
The best thing you can do is to skin the dead calf of that beef cow's, and drape it over the orphan calf's body so that you trick the cow into thinking that that calf is hers. But this will only work if you have that cow's dead calf on hand and not if that cow doesn't have a calf or if you're wanting to put another calf on that cow. Other tricks include smearing cod liver oil or perfume or some other strong-smelling solution that's not poisonous to the cow nor calf over the cow's nose and all over the back and head of the calf, putting a dog in with the cow and the calf, etc.
If a red cow is mixed with a roan bull what happens?
We'll get a 50% chance of getting a red calf and a 50% chance of getting a roan calf.
Is it normal for a calf to be born covered in bright yellow embryotic fluid?
Yes and no. If a calf is born at the right time, he won't be coming out all yellow-looking, which happens more often when a cow drops a calf all on her own. But, if a calf is having to stay in the womb a little longer than normal, he will defecate or even pee in the womb, causing the amniotic fluid to turn yellow and make his hair a bit yellow. But that's nothing to be alarmed about, since the amniotic fluid gets flushed out of the cow by the cow's contractions and the calf being born.
