This could be due to constipation (if the stool is hard that is a sign of constipation, if so feed them some natural yogurt, this will help soften the stool). It could also be due to an irritation of the bowel or digestive system or a sign of dehydration, keep an eye on their eating and drinking, if you have noticed a decrease in appetite, than call your vet for a further look, antibiotics or fluids could be needed.

Hope that this helps.

Can a black cow and a black bull have a white calf?

Yes, it is possible for a black cow and a black bull to have a white calf if both parents carry a recessive gene for white coloration. This would allow for the expression of the white color in their offspring.


Can a black cow and a bull have a white calf?

No. Black is a dominant colour, no matter what colour the bull is. If the bull is white, the calf will be grey. If a bull is black, the calf will be black; if a bull is a blue roan, the calf will be most likely a darker roan or even black; if a bull is red or brown, the calf will be black; if a bull is yellow or orange the calf will be either grey or black.


How does a black cow and black bull have a white calf?

They don't. It's simply not possible. The only way a black cow can "have" a white calf is if the white calf has been adopted by that cow because her calf had died at birth and the white calf had no mother because it's mother either rejected it or died giving birth to it. It's new surrogate mother then happened to be a black cow.

Black feces in calves can indicate several issues, including the presence of digested blood, which may suggest gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration.

Monitoring overall health and diet can help prevent digestive issues.

If two black cows have a baby cow what color will that cow be?

Two cows cannot mate to get a calf (or "cow" in this instance). You have to have a BULL and a cow to get a baby calf. Just like you gotta have a Mom and a Dad to "make" you.Now back to the question. If the bull is black and the cow is black, there is a high chance that you will get a black calf. However, let's increase the complexity and throw in a bit of genetic terminology in here.Let B = black and b = red. Black is always homozygous or dominant to red in cattle.If both the sire and dam is heterozygous black (Bb x Bb) , there is a 25% chance that you will get a red calf (bb). But if both parents are homozygous for black, there is a 100% chance that the calf will not be red, but instead, homozygous black (BB). If either one of the parents are heterozygous black, the calf still has a 100% chance that it will be black, phenotypically. But, genotypically, the calf has a 25% chance of being heterozygous black. A heterozygous black calf, no matter if it grows into a cow or a bull (depending on the calf's sex), will have a 25% chance of giving birth to or siring red calves if crossed with a heterozygous black bull or cow or a a 75% chance of siring a red calf with a red bull or cow.
