How much milk does a cow produce in a week?
A young cow can produce 25 gallons of milk a week. A jersey cow, 28 gallons per week. Guess it depends on the size of the cow. And no, cows that stand in the shade do NOT give chocolate milk. :)
My parents Holsteins were giving approximately 40-49 gal a week. My Jersey on silage will produce 35gal per week. On grain and hay she will produce 28gal per week. How much a cow produces depends a lot on what they are being fed and how stressed they are. A happy cow will give more milk than an unhappy cow, and the higher the quality of the feed, the more milk they are able to produce.

Are there psilosybin mushrooms in Utah?
There are mushrooms of this type in Utah. Look for Cow pastures, specifically grain fed dairy cows in a pasture that is irrigated or fed by sprinklers. Go at night with a flashlight and look for "meadow muffins" or cowpies. The LBMs (little brown mushies) will be popping around the pies and on the pies. Don't get caught:)

This comes from Exodus 34:26--do not cook a kid in its mother's milk.
I have given some thought to the Biblical dietary laws, and they all seem to be a product of their time. The Exodus 34:26 law restricting you from eating dishes made from both meat and milk was probably born of food shortages. If you had some meat and some cheese or milk, you could make one meal from the meat and another from the dairy - or one meal from both foods combined. When food is as short as it was when the Jews were fleeing Egypt, stretching food was critical.
The list of "clean" and "unclean" animals in Leviticus 11 is also a product of its time. The "unclean" animals are all ones that cause disease when eaten raw or when handled at all. Swine are specifically listed as an unclean animal; eating uncooked or undercooked pork causes trichinosis. Shellfish, which hath not fins nor scales, are unclean because there are four different kinds of shellfish poisoning. The elders who made the dietary laws didn't know about paralytic shellfish poisoning or diarrheal shellfish poisoning; they did know that when people ate clams that were harvested when the ocean was brown in color, sometimes the people died. Since clams are not the only thing people had to eat, it was a lot easier to tell people "God says don't eat clams" than to research shellfish poisoning and set up a system for predicting red tides. Today we can harvest and eat shellfish safely; then they couldn't.
The habit of cows is to say 'hello' and tip their hats when greeting a lady.
They also may retrieve small sticks, or even children, when they are asked politely.
In my experience, only very well trained cows will do this.
They are often seen happily performing the function of lawn moo-er.

What is the importance of green fodder in dairy animals?
Fodder is just another term for forage or green silage. Silage is feed that is highly nutritious that dairy cattle need to produce milk and meet their maintenance needs as well. Dairy cattle have higher nutrient needs than most livestock except chickens and pigs, and this need must be met with green fodder or high quality forage in the form of silage and/or grain.
What acid is present in a cow's milk?
The acid present in cow's milk is Lactic acid and the protein is casein.
Does cows milk change colour when the cows are fed carrots?
It can, yes. It's just like when a baby is fed too much carrot baby food their skin turns a kind of yellow. Carrots contain carotene, and if cows are fed too many carrots it can affect the colour (and even possibly the taste) of the milk, turning it into a yellowish tinge.
Why would farmers breed cows that produce more milk?
Since this is weighted more towards dairy cattle rather than beef, higher milk production means higher income income generated on milk sold, especially in the United States where there is no cap or quota as to how much milk (or milk fat, as is the case with supply management in Canada) can be sold per day, month or year. Production weighs heavily towards the amount of milk that a farmer can get from his dairy cows, so if he breeds for higher or maximum milk production in his dairy herd, the more income that he should expect to have to cover other costs incurred in a typical dairy farm operation.
Do they filter milk in a dairy farm?
No. Milk is not processed any further than pasteurization on the dairy farm. The milk collected into a big bulk tank on the farm is stored there until the truck arrives to collect the milk. The milk is then delivered to the closest factory that processes the milk, filtering out the fat to get several different types of milk (Homogenized, 2%, 1%, and skim) and deposits them in cartons or plastic jugs. The fat is saved for butter, cheese, ice cream, yogurt, and other dairy products, which are also made in a factory environment separate from the dairy farm.
The only job of the dairy farm is to care for and raise the cows that produce milk, collect the milk from the cows using milk machines (and the advanced technology and hygiene associated with the seemingly simplistic task of milking cows), and store it in a bulk tank, and pasteurize it. A dairy farmer cannot nor has the facilities to do anything more with the milk than store it until the milk collection truck arrives.
How much milk will aryshire cow produce?
Ayrshire cattle will have an average milk yield of 15,094 lbs. Keeping in mind that this amount can change per cow, from area to area and from feed being digested.
Can a cow that has a calf have bad milk?
That all depends on what you mean by "bad milk." "Bad milk" can mean anything from milk that tastes bad or is infected with mastitis, or even a cow that is not producing much milk in the first place. So pick one and please re-ask the question again so you can get a more specific answer.
