18 months is full weight
I have 320 beef cows, and about that many steers/heifers waiting for market.
18 months on a steer is about 1200lbs, pasture fed then grain finished before slaughter. A non-castrated male can get to 2200lbs after 4-5 years. I'd call that an adult bull. They can breed successfully at damn near any age after 12 months, but I wouldn't call them developed until about 30.
you know that, whether they are male or female, they are at full weight for slaughter around 18 months.
It's not not adulthood, and it's certainly not a full life, because cows and bulls would love to over 15 if we let them.
if we didn't provide veterinary care and feed and water and shelter and protection from predators, I doubt any would live so long.
15-20 years is the natural life span of cattle. Google it if you like.
In my country, all the wolves got wiped out and cattle are too big for foxes to take on.
Cattle get fewer diseases if they're not kept inside in cramped conditions eating unnatural bulking food like corn. and are instead allowed to graze grassland freely. Not all of them would live to 20 by a long shot, but a big proportion would make it past 15.
Cows don't naturally eat corn. It gives them really bad digestion problems, but makes them put on so much fat that it gets stored in little pockets in muscle tissue. The result is meat which has what's called "marbling" and is seen as a sign of quality and tastiness in the USA. This unnatural feed has health issues for the cattle and it's common in the USA to give low dosage antibiotics so that fewer animals get sick and have to be put down.
(This is the perfect bedding ground for antibiotic resistant bacteria, and more and more bacteria are evolving antibiotic resistance which means when humans get an infection, they usually die rather than usually live, risking bacterial infection survival rates going back to nearer 19th century levels, when a random cut might just lead to your death. We're working hard on new antibiotics, but they're far more expensive than penecillin, and at the moment drug resistance is growing faster than me antibiotics are.)
In my country, only about 5% of cattle are kept inside all year, and they're almost all grass fed and meat is much leaner, and lean meat like (lean) fillet steak is seen as the highest quality.
no cow lives 15-20 years without human intervention.
Google natural lifespan cow.
I'm not responsible for supporting your argument: you are
Apparently you're not responsible for updating your knowledge from external sources or admitting you might have made a mistake or been incorrect. Not your style at all.
I have no problem learning I'm wrong.
That's not what your comment history says about you. At all.
anyone can see that's not true
Not by reading your post history, they can't! Lol.
that's the best evidence for it to be untrue.
Link me to one comment where you backed down or admitted you were wrong! Are you prepared to admit that male cows are killed for meat before adulthood, that the natural lifespan of cattle is so,ewhere inthe region of 15-20 years or that milk farming happens because there's commercial demand for milk? I suspect not. Surprise me!
that's not true
You don't half post some crazy stuff then refuse to admit you're wrong.
if i was wrong, you'd be able to show that.
If you were prepared to ever admit you were wrong, you would have done it today.
that's not true.
Lol.
i'm not your puppet, but since youre obsessed with my comment history, you surely have seen me do exactly that. continuing to assert i do not means you either have not read what you claim to have done, or you are being intellectually dishonest.
Lol.
