The calves come when they are one day old, and usually stay until about 3 months old. This particular ranch, about 20% will go to dairy, and 80% will go to beef. Most of these cuties will end up on your plate. I stopped for lunch and am eating one right now.

They arrive when they’re one day old? Here they aren’t even allowed to leave the farm they’re born on until they’re 2 weeks old.

That’s like no farm I ever saw in my life.

Farming, it seems, is very different in the drier parts of America. As I understand it cattle are fed throughout the year on what are called feedlots rather than being grazed.

The Central Valley of CA is full of them. So many. They all look like this.

I was scrolling down and appreciating the pictures.

When I saw the burger at the end, I absolutely lost it and started laughing pretty hard.
