Both, but many cows are used as dairy animals so beef from young animals is more likely to come from bullocks. Beef from older animals is more likely to come from former dairy cows.

There is no such thing as a male cow. All cows are female. A bull or a steer is what a cow mates with.

From TexasDolly: If you mate a cow (or heifer) with a steer you're not going to have a lot of luck in the breeding department since a steer has been castrated. You live in NY right?

Are female beef cows milk cows?

No. Cows are female, they're mature female bovines that have had a calf. Beef cows are genetically selected to produce more beefy frames than dairy cows are, and thus only produce enough milk for their calves. Beef cows are typically not selected for increased milk quantity like other dairy breeds are (including Holstein, Jersey and Brown Swiss), and thus, unlike dairy cows, do not produce so much milk that their one calf can't drink it all at one nursing.

No, only the "female cows" do. Male "cows" are not cows. They are bulls or steers, which do not produce milk.

Young female bovines that have not had a calf are called heifers, and they are not able to produce milk because they have not had a calf yet.
