Cold Morning here on the farm.....did we feed the cows enough hay yesterday?
What happens here
The farmer steps away from the camera to tend to the hay. He then returns and educates viewers on various cattle terms: 'cow' (female who has calved), 'open cow' (female who has calved but is not currently pregnant), 'heifer' (young female who hasn't calved), 'steer' (castrated male), and 'bull' (uncastrated male). He explains that 'line breeding' is common in livestock and different from typical 'inbreeding,' often used to improve genetics.
Goal: Educate viewers on livestock definitions and breeding
