I knew holsteins had relatively large calves compared to other breeds like herefords, but Wow! That baby looked huge!

[holsteincowboy]

Calf is doing well. btw have you seen my Blue ridge mountains of VA video ?

[DERRYIRELAND]

Does this mean that she's no longer a herbivore?

[holsteincowboy]

haha Could be

[Yggdrasill4]

Never knew they did that,

made me gag a bit...

[holsteincowboy]

I see them doing that almost every day during calving season

[GiovaniB52]

I'm gonna throw up now

[fastrac]

bet the city folk love this one

@DERRYIRELAND hahaha..most people won't understand neither heifer nor herbivore....

a moda nos eua é os pais comerem a placenta dos seus filhos, tem uns videos no youtube ensinando preparar o prato, tive nojo. os animais comem a placenta pra ter nutrientes, nao deixar vestigios de sangue para nao vier um predador e assim proteger os filhotes, e tbm pq vai ficar um tempo sem ter como conseguir alimento, q vai precisar para produzir leite. Seres humanos não precisa disso, é canibalismo

@holsteincowboy calving season? when do you have a calving season on a dairy? lol i have a dairy and we calve 365/24/7

[Ruhnezmei89]

@holsteincowboy It gives them nutrition rich milk for their babies. All animals do it.

nice to see a species eating their own placenta that cant talk for once !

[ChriswithMatt]

FUCKING HARDCORE

[woah455]

after watching people it their own placenta...this is quiet amusing.

[vyrusxxl]

it needs the hormones inside of it

[crazytignor]

The Placenta activates a hormone the will ease and encourage more milk flow. :)
