Why didn't my cow come in heat after giving birth?
This could be due to a number of complications, she could have an infection of the uterus, causing malfunction of the hormones. She could have a retained placenta, adding bacteria into the uterine body. The cow could also have a rip, tear, or other damage of the reproductive organs that are causing a complication. Have your veterinarian view the animal to determine what the complication is and treat it accordingly.
Answer 2:The thing you need to understand is that a cow will not come back into heat right after calving. It takes anywhere from 15 days to 3 months for a cow to come back into heat. The possible health issues mentioned above are less common than the most common problem being the body condition of your cow. If a cow is in poor body condition (or is thinner than she should be normally) she will take a long time to come back into heat. A cow that is over conditioned (or very fat) will also take a long time to come back into heat. If you are finding that there is nothing wrong with her reproductive organs, the most likely reason is that she is not in the right body condition to be very fertile.
Genetics and age also have a lot to do with fertility. She may be the type of cow that is lower in fertility due to genetics or the fact that she is at the age that fertility is declining. If any of these are the case, it may be time to let her go and find another cow that is more fertile.
Another possible problem is that she could be cystic. What I mean by "cystic" is that her ovaries have cysts on them that affect her estrous cycle. Cystic cows may show heat all the time, or show heat not at all. It's possible she may be cystic and not showing any heat.
But I think the ultimate problem here is her body condition, especially if the cow you have is a dairy cow. Dairy cows are normally thin, yes, but they shouldn't be so thin that they're going to have trouble coming back into heat. You will need to grain her regularly and improve her feed ration so that she's not only getting enough nutrition for milk production, but so that she can gain on it too. A cow typically will look like crap coming off of calving, but not so much that she's a bit thinner than she should be. It's fine if a cow comes off a little thin or a little under normal condition, but not so much that it'll affect her estrous activity.
A cow needs at least 45 to 60 days (or 90 if she's taking too long) to get out of her period of anestrus [no heat] AND to allow the uterus to go back to its normal post-breeding size. When she gets back to normal heats, then you can get her bred.

Did I help you?
No. Grass only is "turned into" hay when it is cut and collected for the sole purpose of feeding animals i.e., livestock. Grass will be grass no matter if it's alive and green, or brown and dead.
Besides, FYI, grass hay is cut when grass is green, not when it has reached full maturity and gone into dormancy (i.e., turned brown and "died"). If grass is cut at this stage it contains very little nutritional value for livestock, and is otherwise considered the same value as straw.
Almost all breed of cows that exist now have been bred for a particular character trait. Milk, meat, size or some other trait that someone wanted. In that sense, they were "made". There were and still are natural breeds of cows that evolved like all other species.
What are the advantages of free range eggs?
Proponents of eggs from free-range chickens state that the eggs have higher levels of good fats (omega-3s) and lower levels of bad fats (saturated fats, cholesterol, etc.). There are also claims that the eggs have higher levels of trace nutrients such as vitamins and minerals.
However, I have not seen scientific backing for these claims so this is not proof-positive that free range chickens lay healthier eggs. I have eaten eggs that my parents raised on their farm and can tell you that they tend to have more taste to them.
Domestic livestock are those livestock or farm animals that are raised locally and are already domesticated (i.e., bred to be dependent on humans for their survival), such as cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, chickens, etc.

What percent of farm animals are tortured during slaughtering?
None. Once an animal is stunned or throat cut, that's it: no amount of "torturing" after this killing is done will hurt an animal because it's already dead.
