Nothing wrong with that. Dairy cows are slaughtered for beef as culls anyway, so it's no big deal if you slaughter a dairy cow and turn her into ground beef.
That all depends on the breed. Are you asking about a dairy cow or a beef cow, and what breed of dairy or beef cow?
No. She is a dairy cow, one that is used to primarily produce milk.
Dairy
A beef cow is breed to provide high quality beef while Dairy cows are breed for high milk production. Normally in beef cattle the calf is left with the mother to nurse, in Dairy cattle they pull the calf and feed them 'creep feed' and the mother milk is harvested. You can milk any cow (beef or Dairy) but the yield will be lower on beef cattle and if the calf is with the mother then it will consuming most if not all of the milk. [Hi, I am from Hawaii and have three family pet cows that we milk. We have one Angus cow (a 'beef' breed whose calf is almost 2 years old now, and she gives milk every day. Our Angus cow's name is Dwadasi and she will not be used for beef. Her milk is very rich.
No. Dairy cows have much larger udders than beef cows do. A dairy cow has been selected to produce more milk than what she can feed her calf to meet the farmers' demands for more milk to be produced per cow per day.
A calf (or baby cow) is the reason that the beef and dairy industries have not crashed. They are the future beef and milk producers, so in short answer they will feed you.
It's not because a dairy cow HAS to be thin, its because she has been genetically selected to put most of her energy into producing milk instead of in the rest of her body like beef cows.
Yes there is such thing as a non milking cow in other words a non milk producing cowthere is aDairy CowBeef CowBullBut a bull is a male so we can cross bull out BULL a dairy cow produces milk so we can cross that out too DAIRY So the non milk producing cow is a Beef CowI Hope this helped!!
No. The biggest type of bovine is typically the beef cow. There are beef cows around that weight more than a big dairy cow, and that can be upwards of 2000 lbs or more.
you get milk and the meat of the cow,beef
Yes.
I am sure that you could, but dairy cows are more valuable to farmers for the milk they produce, not their meat.
