Oats? For a bull? Really? I don’t know about anyone else but bovine do nothing all day but eat grass, then lay down and chew cud. On a dairy farm I know about, while the cows are going through the milking house, they get a pelleted feed to keep them happy while being milked. After the afternoon milking they are fed fodder from the silo and then turned back out to pasture for the night.

Mares eat oats and doe’s eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. Kids’ll eat ivy too; wouldn’t you?
