Dairy cows are mostly in barns, with only cows that are dry out in the corral with a shed. They are fed their usual diets, but those that are outdoors are given fresh straw bedding once every few days depending on the weather conditions.
Beef cattle are either in corrals being fed hay and bedded with straw or wood chips, or out on pasture with hay that is spread in rows for them. Good dry bedding and adequate shelter in the form of a shed or windbreak is important for the health and well-being of the cattleherd, as well as adequate food and water.
All cattle grow thick winter coats in the winter to shelter them from the cold. Depending on their condition, fat cows will eat less than thin cows because the extra layer of fat is enough to insulate them from the cold. Thin cows, however, need to eat more to keep their energy levels up and to keep themselves warm. Feeding thin cows cost a lot more than feeding cows that are fat or of normal condition.

What makes cows lose their winter coat?
Cows lose their winter coat primarily due to changes in daylight and temperature as spring approaches. The increase in daylight triggers hormonal changes that signal the cows to shed their thick winter fur. Additionally, warmer temperatures make it uncomfortable for cows to retain their heavy coat, prompting them to shed it for a lighter summer coat. This process helps regulate their body temperature as the seasons change.
