Theo

Gus & Theo came to us from a dairy farm in Vermont where they were destined to be a very short and tragic life. As you may know in order to produce milk cheese and other dairy products the cows must be impregnated in order to produce milk. The babies are taken away immediately and given formula in order for the milk to be used for human consumption. The female calves are normally kept and raised to become impregnated and used for milk while the males are considered virtually useless. The bull (male) calves are either killed immediately or raised in confinement until they are slaughtered at only a few months old and sold as veal. Now they will live out their lives here with their pasture friends!
