Came into the comments to read about petting baby cows. Left feeling icky. ☹️

Maybe its just cause I'm high, but baby cows are frickin adorable, and now I'm thinking about finding a rancher friend.

Only after they've been washed off. Or dry cleaned. Or whatever, IDK, I'm from Chicago.

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

We dry clean them. Otherwise they shrink.

IDK, I'm from Chicago

So you're more familiar with the end stage of the process.

The moms lick them clean after birth, and if you’re expecting any animal to be clean I got bad news for ya.

Bonus fun fact the cows tend to eat the afterbirth as well. Source grew up on a farm/ranch, if you want gross learn about prolapse. Guess who had skinny arms as a teenager and got to help keep cows alive till the vet came and had two thumbs? This guy… not sure I should be proud of what I had to do but yeah cows is expensive.

There's a dairy farm somewhat close to me that let's you pet the cows and watch them get milked. It's pretty cool.

[-] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

I’d prefer it if the cows petted me and watched me get milked

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

There's conventions for that, you just need to bring your own costume.

  1. Cows don't make extra milk, you have to take their baby's from them and then take that milk.
  2. Cows need to be impregnated constantly to keep milk flow.

Its possible theres an ethical dairy farm but ive yet to see one.

I should have heeded your warning. I swear man, the people on this website can be some of the least fun people on the internet on a pretty regular basis.

After a couple of week, maybe but not immediately.
