Answer 4

A cow that cannot produce milk is typically referred to as a dry cow. This term is used to describe a cow that is not currently lactating or producing milk. Dry cows are given a break from milking to allow their udders to rest and prepare for their next lactation cycle.

Answer 5

they have a name for baby cows . cows before 1st birth cant produce milk and they also have a name, cows that are stopped milking before they give birth also have a name and male cows before and after 24 months old have a name :) which cow do you mean?

Answer 6

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.

Answer 7

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.

Answer 8

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.

Answer 9

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.

Answer 10

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