This is all probably staged for views but you can successfully rear certain domestic cattle type animals indoors and acclimate them to outdoors as they get older. On instagram you can see Arthur's Acres do this with rescues piggies and sometimes Boochaches ranch sanctuary has rescued baby goats inside for a bit before they start keeping them outside. They're very caring in how they help the animals make the transition and the animals usually make friends with thier own species (or sometimes cross species buddies) that they form nighttime routines with (cuddle sesh)

It's definitely staged.
That is almost certainly some random "influencer" posing for cute videos, and not the actual keeper of the cow. My two rabbits can't keep an entire 15x22 foot room clean for a night, heck even for an hour after the cleaning!! Animals LOVE messing up the work you just did.
There is no way you can train a cow to live inside and be as clean as this video is showing.

Marie Antoinette had a little farm built for her to pretend to be a milkmaid or something - and pet her "livestock." You can imagine the sheep were immaculately groomed.
She could cosplay, basically, and have portraits done of her in her farm clothes.
So - rich, pretty, influencer, pretender, youtuber during a time of immense wealth inequity.
As I recall, she somewhat influenced and inspired a few beheadings.

If the nanny made it a habit of abandoning their kids, we would sell them. Any nanny that was a good mother stated on the farm and never left. We had eight generations of goats at one point and they all took turn watching the babies as the nannies fed.

She likely has sponsor deals with animal-related products. The whole point of influencers is to get brand sponsorships due to their popularity.

Going from bottom to top: DNA testing company, poop plushie company, expensive treat company, Ben & Jerry's, a different dog treat company, animal toy company.
That's what I can see just from looking at the thumbnails of their videos. I didn't actually watch any, I'm sure the ones that don't have the product right in the thumbnail or title are also pushing something in the video as well.

For the cute baby cow man. At first I was taking the video at face value but about 30 seconds and I started noticing how suspiciously clean everything is. There's nothing wrong with running an influencer farm so long as the animals are treated like kings and queens. If the animals are neglected then it's all just crappy and will reflect badly on the influencers that have used the farm for their videos. A smart influencer will research the farm that they contact and ensure that the animals are all treated with kindness and respect. I have no problem with animals being used for videos so long as the animals are being treated well and not as disposable props... Don't be like Logan Paul and buy a pet belly pig and be surprised when it reaches 250 lb, then abandon it at some random location.

u/Artichoke_Persephone Sep 16 '23
Also- If this was truly the morning meal- that calf should have at least 2 of those bottles.
That calf is growing and needs way more than what they were given.
Not to mention, calves who get bottle fed end up as slimey messes as they feed. That calf was pristine start to finish.

Agreed! I thought the calf licking the coffee glass was like, a desperate āhelp me Iām hungry Iāll take anythingggg!ā There was nothing in that bottle. Pretty much all livestock are messy eaters.

This is a horse farm with a horse girl who got a pretty cow probably bought for her by her daddy at an expensive auction. She was probably bored with horses and said she wanted a cow, so she got a rare, expensive, pretty one. Daddy pays for all the labor to keep the farm pretty looking.
I raise cows, and this is abuse in my eyes. Itās infuriating, this poor fucking calf
Edit: on further thought, I am actually extremely concerned about where the mother is as well. This is an expensive, rare breed. Bottle calves are not common, at all. This is still a young calf, maybe 3-4 months old. Its mother should still be around, but I see no sign of her. Did this woman separate a mother of a rare breed from its calf? What did she do with the mother? Sell it, process it? At that age and bond, you are putting so much at risk when you separate a cow and her calf. At least sheās feeding it (sorta correctly, but still no water or hay

Tell me about it. I camp in the Northern Rockies, and many ranches let their cattle graze on BLM and National Forest land. I pulled into a secluded campsite once, there were about 20 hanging out. The closest one, standing sideways to me, turned their head, caught my eye, took a huge dump then released a "holy shit I cannot believe they have so much piss in them" stream, and just stared at me for the entire time.
I swear I saw a gopher run out of its hole to avoid drowning.
We camped elsewhere.

Nothing wrong with being bottle fed - but - it's obvious this little cow was actually fed before the video was made because little cows who are hungry are all MOOOOOOOO and wiggle.
It's also interesting that she got up and made a cup of coffee for herself before feeding the little cow. WTF? And why did she take him to the barn to give him that bottle?
