The moms lick them clean after birth, and if you’re expecting any animal to be clean I got bad news for ya.

Bonus fun fact the cows tend to eat the afterbirth as well. Source grew up on a farm/ranch, if you want gross learn about prolapse. Guess who had skinny arms as a teenager and got to help keep cows alive till the vet came and had two thumbs? This guy… not sure I should be proud of what I had to do but yeah cows is expensive.

It sucks when the innie becomes an outie.

Helping birth breach calves was my least favorite part of the job but it has to be done.
