How long can a cow go without being milked?

A cow can typically go around 12-24 hours without being milked before experiencing discomfort or pain. However, it is important for dairy cows to be milked regularly, typically 2-3 times a day, to prevent health issues and maintain milk production.


What do the cows do when they are not being milked and are they able to roam around or lay down comfortably If they like?

Actually this really depends on the dairy operation! Some dairies have cows that are allowed to roam around AND lay down comfortably if they wanted, other dairies have cows where they just stay in stanchions that are wide enough for them to lay down comfortably whenever they wanted. I've never heard of a dairy operation where they didn't have anything that allowed cows to lay down when they wanted. Maybe not so much roam around, though there's a large number of dairies have milking facilities where cows simply walk in, get milked, then walk out again to their corrals in the barn or under a shed or out to pasture if it's summer. But basically, when they're not being milked they're eating, sleeping or laying/standing around chewing cud and socializing with other cows they're in the barn or pasture with.


What are twelve cows called?

What is a cows life like?

A cows life is often rather boring. Although they do like grass and being milked, they most likely must get bored of this repetitive life style, especially as they don't have Christmas and birthday and things. Anthropomorphizing like the above person does doesn't help answer the question. Cows are creatures of habit, and are happy with how things go day to day. They eat, sleep, have sex when they're needing it, and get milked...at least for the dairy cows. For the beef cows, the same applies above except they got a calf to look after and open skies to graze under all day. They couldn't be happier.
