They are also milked 2 to 3 times a day. Also, cattle products are ingredients in chewing gum, makeup, crayons, and detergent. ]]> 2017-10-13 13:57:14 UTC https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/196815112 02bmallick https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/196816781 I love this book because it gives me so many interesting facts like; A dairy cow drinks 25 to 50 gallons of water each day.

If someone was a beginner for raising livestock and they needed information, they could find this in the book, and the risks of giving it to them. 

"Cattle can be fed hay or can grade in the pasture. They eat by moving their heads and tearing the grass in the pasture, because they do not have cutting teeth to bite with. Cattle can also be fed cracked corn. Farmers also put out salt and mineral blocks for the cattle to lick." 

That also relates to what I said for the last quote, if they needed information or advice they could look at this book as a resource. ]]> 2017-10-13 14:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/196818179 02bmallick https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/197331475 2017-10-16 13:29:16 UTC https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/197331475 02bmallick https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/199562035 2017-10-23 13:34:16 UTC https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/199562035 02bmallick https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/199566368 210; Julie Kerr Casper ]]> 2017-10-23 13:41:16 UTC https://padlet.com/02bmallick/u2b5g9524i3n/wish/199566368
