Yes, but this, which is called Inbreeding, often causes far more problems with genetic defects and disorders, especially when animals are not tested for genetic defects, or have unknown genetic background (or are considered inferior in comparison to other superior animals). Inbreeding and Linebreeding should only be done if you know what genetics your herd has, if you have a LOT of experience with breeding cattle, and if you wish to purify a certain progeny line. Ninety-percent of the time it is highly unrecommended that most breeders, especially those that have to ask about it and are still novices to breeding cattle, to use inbreeding or linebreeding in their herds.

How many times can a bull breed its mother?

DO NOT breed a bull to his mother, not unless you have a closed herd with cows and bulls that you have a pedigree history of and want to produce a truly purebred herd. If you do not have any pedigree or genetic history of the bull and his dam, you're going to run into a lot of complications and issues. The calf may die from a fatal genetic disorder, or the cow may give birth to a stunted calf that will not be as vigorous as the calves that are born from that cow from an unrelated bull.See the related question below for more.

What reason will a staffordshire bull terriers turn on their pups?

This is not a very likely scenario as almost all Dogs make excellent mothers. Dogs will usually only kill their offspring if they are very sickly. This is not a normal behaviour in Dogs and a mum that has killed her offspring should not be bred from again. Possible reasons for cannibalism or killing of puppies are a behavioural abnormality in the mother or the mother having a calcium or nutrient deficiency. If looked after properly, a mother should not kill her puppies.
