Holstein calf - Schleich 13798

After birth, the calves are lovingly licked dry by their mothers in their stall. After just a few days, they can go out onto the pasture with the other cows to romp around and play. A few weeks later, they start eating grass and hay. However, they still cannot digest the fresh green fodder as well as adult cows. This is why the calves continue to drink their mother's milk for six to twelve months. They are fully grown around the age of 5 and can live to be between 20 and 25 years old. From 3 years.
