could be.... tho cows dont normally develope udders untill after around 33 months


Cows are usually first inseminated at 2 years I believe. Those are beef cattle, bulls with their gonads removed to make them docile to handle, although it would need a picture from the back to prove it. You can see a tuft on their bellies which cows dont have.


Wow, I didnt know we had a resident cow expert.

I yahooed it on a site, means cows do have udders younger than what knighty says but it may not apply to all breeds so we could both be right ;)

Development of breasts starts in the womb in mammals, they are after all only modified sweat glands ;)

Different breeds will age at different rates depending on the environment they were created for. Some will start breeding later than others. For milk production the key factor is quick start and long production life, for beef its more the production of lean beef.

I think they are bulls they look heavier built than a heifer would.
