Has anyone seen the new tv add promoting their permeate free milk? this might jog your memory. The add has about half a dozen dairy cows in the background standing in a beautiful green grass padock eating the long grass. I think it's funny that people believe that's the environment the cows milk come from.
I wish I could make an add telling everyone how soy, almond, rice, oat and about five other non dairy milks are also permeate free and don't involve murder and rape to produce them ugh.

Well the paddocks they chill in when not being milked are similar to the ones on the ad, however it's when it comes to milking time that is the biggest case of animal cruelty I've ever seen.
Riding on a quad behind the herd, driving closer and closer to them to push them down the hill and into the "yard" before the milking machines, which consists of about a metre deeps worth of "mud", also known as Cow feces. Alot of the cows at this stage get stuck and when they see the workers coming with the big rubber tubes, sketch out and fall over.
Amongst many other things mentioned in my blog post, the paddocks they stay in are probably the most humane part out of the whole process.

Really? that makes me sad. Ive seen pictures of major milking companies and the padocks dont look anything like the one seen on the tv add. What the tv add was pretty much saying was that they are free ranged cows with plenty of room and when it comes to milking time a bucket or pale is bought and they are kind and gentle. I think its very misleading.
How did you deal with working at a dairy farm? emotionally i mean? and is it true that they put them in a blender to kill them once they cant produce the milk? makes me so sad

Honestly, I was pushed for money, and at the time of working there, I didn't really realise how horrible it was, it was after I stopped working there that I reflected and realised how unnatural and cruel the farm was.
They do have plenty of room to wander when it isn't milking time, milking time happens at least twice a day, but outside of that time it isn't so bad.
As far as I know there is no blender involved in the killing of any animals. I don't know whether they do kill the cows that can no longer produce milk/offspring as I was never told/never saw. The calves that were killed are all loaded onto a big truck and sent to the slaughterhouse. I was a calf feeder so my main concern was the calves, and moving the herds to the milkers with the machines when they needed an extra hand.
Once the cows have dryed up, over worked or have mastitis the cows are sent to the sale and then to the slaughterhouse or they just go direct to the slaughterhouse.
The cows are normally around 5 - 8 years of Age when they are considered no longer useful, It is honestly a horrific sight seeing the cows when they have been over worked and have mastitis.
In my local supermarket ( IGA ) there is a massive wall of happy looking dairy cows and i stuck up some photos of some cows in horrific conditions at the local sale yard, the pictures where there for a few days until they were taken off.

The cows that had mastitis at the dairy I was at were marked with spray paint and kept, themilk they produced was chucked though. They managed to get most of those cows healthy.
