Have you drank enough water today? 💧 Dairy cows always have access to fresh, clean water to keep them hydrated. Water troughs automatically refill so they can socialize and slurp each moorning.

Step aside Golden Corral! Dairy cows have access to a buffet every day. 😋🍴

Dairy farmers combine many feed ingredients in a large mixer to formulate a balanced diet for their cows. They then distribute that casserole by driving alongside pens or down the feed ally where cows can step right up and enjoy. 🐄

Some farms like @messykennedy’s have robots to push the feed closer to the cows as they eat through the pile! Check it out in her latest post. 👀

Mother's Day calls for celebrating all mommas! 🐄 #DYK like humans, cows are also pregnant for 9 months?

Dairy farmers and veterinarians monitor every pregnancy with additional health checks, such as ultrasounds, and adjust each cow's nutritional needs as the pregnancy progresses. Cows even go on "moo-ternity" leave a couple months before giving birth where they are able to prepare for the arrival of their calf with extra snacks and naps. 💤

Learn more about how farmers ensure the health and comfort of expecting cows by visiting the 🔗 in our bio.
