Best Answer

Yes especially if they are injured, or dehorned or castrated. Note it is only the bulls that get castrated, not cows. Thus it is much easier to say that cattle do bleed if wounds that break their skin are inflicted on them.

How many cows does it take to make an ton of milk?

That really depends on the breed of the cows used and the amount of milk they can produce. Thus we can base this on an estimated amount: Let's say one cow will produce around 20 lbs of milk per milking. Estimate that one ton = 2000 lbs, so 2000/20 = 100. Thus 100 of these cows will produce one ton of milk in one milking. Now lets goof things up here. Let's say that this is a Holstein cow which has been known produces twice that amount: i.e., 40 lbs per milking. Also, let's assume that one ton is equal to 2200 lbs. Thus, 2200/40 = 55 cows. Therefore, 55 Holstein cows can be used to produce one ton of milk per milking.

How many times a day does a farmer milk his cow?

The milk that collects in her udder can make it swollen and painful if it isn't taken out often enough. So the cows are milked early in the morning and late in the afternoon. They learn that milking takes away the discomfort of a very full udder and will walk to and from the milking sheds of their own accord, with no need to be rounded up.

How do cows make milk in 2 sentences?

Cows make milk by, really and literally converting blood into milk via capillaries attached to the alveoli in the udder. The milk is then stored in the various glands and cisterns until removed via suckling action by the calf, or the vacuum suction of the milking machine. Please see the related question below for a more detailed answer.

They can, but mainly for three reasons:They are inexperienced with being milked, like experienced with Holstein and Jersey heifersThey have mastitis in a quarter that is making it very painful to be milked outThe way you are treating or milking their udders (like jerking or pulling too hard, or squeezing too hard) is making it uncomfortable or painful for them, causing them to react to make the pain or discomfort go awayOccasionally there will be one or two cows, mainly Jerseys, that kick just because they can.


Why does technology make it easier to give cows growth hormones?

It doesn't. Growth hormones are just that; they are just there to aid in the increase of milk production. Genetic technology is just a means to better select cows and bulls that are more apt to produce calves with better milking ability than themselves. Growth hormones have nothing to do with genetics or reproduction, really.
