Bull: An adult male dairy animal. Young male dairy animals are known as bull calves.
We do not keep bulls on the farm -- they are extremely dangerous! Because of their hostile nature, most dairy farmers use artificial insemination to breed the cows. Using A.I. is much safter for the farm family, employees, and the cows! If you ever see a bull, NEVER go into a pen with it. Usually they have a ring in their nose.
Our bull calves leave the farm at about 2 days of age. They are sold to another farmer that raises them. He is the "man-cow" specialist. hahah.
