What Do You Call Male And Female Dairy Animals?

Males are called bulls. Females, prior to giving birth, are called calves or heifers. After they give birth, female dairy animals are called cows.

bulls
Newborn calves weigh about 80-100 pounds. Male dairy cattle are called bulls and do not produce milk.

For example, a female cow younger than 3 years old that has not had a baby is termed a heifer; a male cow is called a bull; and a castrated male is a steer. So a dairy cow is a female that has given birth to a baby. That baby is called a calf.
