We learned that at Underwood Family Farm, newborn calves usually only get to stay with their mothers from 21 to 24 hours. After that they are separated and live with other calves their age for one to two weeks while being bottle fed by the farmers. The male claves are raised for beef and veal, as they are of no use to the dairy industry, lacking the female reproductive system which would allow them to be impregnated and then lactate.
