Leave it to ihavealife to have a negative comment. What do you do, ihavealife? Do you search every blog and article so you can sprinkle your negative pixie dust all over them?
Good job, Ann Marie... How true this is!

The caption under the picture says COWS. You obviously are set in thinking they are HEIFERS and I didn't start this whole defining thing, that was Liketoeat. Then you had to chime in with a whole bunch of nonsense as in your last post. I'm glad YOU consider yourself smart, because I highly doubt anyone else does.
You're right farmgirl, I would MUCH rather be inside, bunched up together with a whole bunch of other cows with hardly any room to move than be outside in the fresh air. Oh but wait, if I were a cow, I'd want to be clean! Do you really think animals care if they are sparkling? Because I'm sure they will trade the fresh air and room to move so they can look good. Because that is what cows care about.
I have been to plenty of dairy farms. I have lived in the country for 45 years. My neighbors had cows. One of my closest friends and coworkers has a small organic farm. He keeps his cows out to pasture in comfortable temps and brings them in during extreme temps. I went on a field trip tour with my nephew to Tidy View Dairy that houses 6500 cows. So I've seen the way both are. So I've seen how cows that are out to pasture are compared to cows in a large scale operation. Not that I needed to explain any of that to anyone.

Momofjnc, you are so smart. I wish I could be just like you.
In the definition of "cow" and "heifer", the only difference between the two is one has had a calf (cow) and one has not (heifer). I highly, highly, highly doubt that Larson's whole stock are heifers that do not produce milk. After all, they are a DAIRY farm. So to me, and all the other farmers in the world, these are cows. Yes, some may be heifers, but not all, they are cows. And even the heifers are cows. Because heifers also eventually develop udders whether or not they have had a calf. Do some research. If you still disagree, you might want to let the gazette know that they are WAY OFF BASE. Larson's might want to know that they are wrong too.
By the way, momofjnc, I was being facetious when I said you were smart. And I think I'll decide when to put my thoughts to rest. I don't need you being my mom too.

Placebo, I am so not clicking on that link. Considering you keep posting it everywhere else, I can only imagine it's something bad, or something that will spam me for life. :)

Liketoeat, I'm not sure what your point is. The shot is an aerial shot. You can't see under the cow. Heifers also have udders, but according to your logic (that we can not see udders in the picture), they wouldn't be heifers either. The point is... these are COWS. Bulls don't have udders, so maybe these are a bunch of bulls???? Because that would make sense right? A dairy farm has 1000-2000 bulls???? See... doesn't make sense. Maybe you should concentrate on the story at hand instead of the picture.

Ummm I don't think Katie actually wrote that and if she did, it really has nothing to do with the article. It looks like spam because why would anyone care about propecia and dogs? The gazette staff should remove that.

Liketoeat... a "cow" is an adult female that has had one or more calves. A "heifer" is a young female that has had no calves. So I'm not sure why you singled Joe about trying to make him look like he doesn't know what he's talking about. There is no way to tell if these cows are actually cows or heifers. Also, the reason they are all standing up is, yes, they are feeding, but the surrounding area of the feeder is where they lay. Our complaint was that these cows do not get outside to graze.

And I did my own research. A free stall is where "cattle are free to enter unoccupied stalls" (http://medical-dictionary.thefreediction...). So, yes, they are kept indoors and are allowed to rest in an unoccupied stall. If I was a cow and I had my choice, I'd still rather be outside. Not cooped up in a barn with hundreds or thousands of other cows searching out a "free stall" to rest in.

Come on, Swiss Chick... start reading my posts. Don't assume anything about what I write, just READ what I WROTE. Nowhere does it say in anything that I've posted that it is JUST Larson's. And no, I do not have anything against them; I do not know them. What I do know is what is listed in the article and what I see in the picture. Did you even read the article? I realize you aren't reading posts, but did you read what it is written by Ann Marie?
It's really hard to have any kind of productive discussion with someone that makes assumptions, and uses "NOT" and "whatever" everytime they can't think of a point.
Work on your vocabulary, then we'll talk. While you're at it, you might want to take some kind of research class so you can prove your points a little better. You still haven't answered any of my questions.
