First of all a little reminder.
  • First a calf is born, it is either male or female.
  • Female: it becomes a heifer, then a cow that will give birth to a calf.
  • Male: it becomes ox. At the age of 24 months it is castrated. If it is not emasculated it becomes bull and spends his life breeding or becomes the "co-star" of a bullfight (but that is another story!)
  • The best breed of ox are the Irish Angus, Shorthorn, Hereford, Aberdeen Angus, Charolais, Aubrac, Blonde d'Aquitaine and Salers.
