Can a albino cow have calves?
Yes, an albino cow can have calves, as albinism does not affect a cow's reproductive capabilities. Albinism is a genetic condition that results in a lack of pigmentation, but it does not interfere with the cow's ability to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term. If bred with a non-albino bull, the calves may or may not inherit the albinism trait, depending on their genetic makeup.

The record number of calves a cow has had in her lifetime is 39.
