"Mad on Cows" and friend wrestling with a calf at Reaseheath University Farm,
Nantwich, Cheshire, UK, and a couple of calves enjoying the hay:
This calf doesn't want to have her temperature taken
Mmmmm, hay, yummy
"Mad on Cows" enjoyed a visit to the calves at the Nantwich County Show:
Hello, cute calf
This calf is so calm and friendly
"Mad on Cows" shared a short MP4 video of her
visiting some calves.
Clive send this picture of a fine looking bovine at Fields Farm, Nantwhich, Cheshire, UK:
"What do you mean, I look like the Lone Ranger? Who is he?"
Cows in the field...
Yes, I am a good looking cow, too
Peaceful grazing

Quick Cow facts:
Do cows have horns? Yes, female bovines almost always have horns. While
some cows are naturally polled (which means horn-free), the majority have their
horns removed when they are calves to make them safer to handle. So, YES,
cows can indeed have horns!
Oreo cookie cows? Yes, there are "belted" bovines out there!
More cow facts!
- Three herds of White Park cattle (two in England and one in Scotland) date to the mid-1200s when the herds were enclosed.
- Bos indicus type cattle have several features that distinguish them from European cattle: long, pendulous ears, a hump over the shoulder and neck area, and a large throatlatch and dewlap which have a lot of excess skin.
- The average weight of a Milking Shorthorn cow is 1,400 pounds.
- Seen any "oreo cookie" cows? Dutch Belted and Belted Galloways are two breeds that are black with a wide white belt around the middle.
- Brahman cows stand about 4 feet high at the withers (not including the hump), and weigh an average of 1200-1300 pounds.
- The Hereford is the oldest of all beef breeds. They were first formed in Herefordshire, England, in 1742 by Benjamin Tomkins.
- In the US, the Brown Swiss is second only to the Holstein in total milk yield.
- The native home of the Tarentaise cow is very mountainous; no other French cattle graze in an area with as high an altitude and such dramatic changes in elevation.
