How long does a calf breastfeed?

Calves typically breastfeed for around 6-8 months.

However, this can vary depending on several factors, including:

* Breed: Some breeds, like Jersey cows, might wean their calves earlier than others.

* Management practices: Farmers may choose to wean calves earlier if they're being raised for beef production.

* Availability of other food sources: Calves might wean earlier if they have access to alternative sources of nutrition, like grain.

It's important to note that even after weaning, calves will continue to drink milk from their mothers for some time, gradually reducing their intake as they transition to solid foods.
