The young of a cow is a calf, regardless of the breed but if you wanted to be more specific you could call it a Highland calf or you could be more precise and say it is a Highland heifer calf or Highland bull calf.
A newborn Highland calf has an average weight of around 40 to 50 lbs.
A newborn Highland calf weighs between 50 and 75 pounds. A full-grown Highland cow can weigh anywhere from 900 to 1,200 pounds.
Depends on the breed and body condition of the calf. A 600 lb Jersey calf can be around 7 to 8 months old, whereas a 600 lb miniature calf may not be a calf at all, but a 15 month old heifer or bull. A soggy Angus calf at 600 lbs may be at around 5 to 6 months of age.
It doesn't really matter, as it depends on when the calf was born and when you are able to go out and band the calf.
That all depends on what breed that beef calf is. A 1 month old beef calf can weigh anywhere from 80 lbs to over 200 lbs or more.
Now, why would you want to take away a cow's calf after one month? Calves still need their mommas until they're around 3 months of age, and the cows do get very attached to their calves even after one month, so yes it would "hurt" the cow to take away her calf after only one month, not to mention the calf as well.
The calf is the back part of the leg directly below the knee.
Normal body temperature is around 101.5 to 103 degrees Fahrenheit.
This all depends on the breed. Three-month-old calves of different breeding will weigh more or less than the other. For instance, a Charolais calf will weigh more than a Jersey calf, or a miniature Angus calf will weigh less than an Angus calf (one that is normal in size and proportion).
That depends on the breed. Since this is in the Jersey cattle category, the weight of a three-month old Jersey calf would be around 150 to 200 lbs at the most.
