I personally have not heard of cows being milked THREE times a day, although I suppose it is possible. Twice a day is the norm.

As for being permenently kept in a barn = well, I haven't heard of that either. Again, I suppose it is possible.

Fattening steers are often kept in feed lots, a deplorable practice imo. But even they are not kept in a barn.

WV, perhaps you are vegan? If so, it stands to reason that you don't use dairy products or eat eggs. And I don't suppose you use leather products either.

In your utopia, horses and cattle roam free of any restrictions- kind of like India, eh? Do you let your dog bark? It is work, you know.
