Two calves and a cow share a space in the 'dry cow' barn, where all the cows that are pregnant and not lactating await to give birth. If the calf is a dairy boy, it is sold to the commodity market. If it is a girl, it goes to the youngstock barn. Only the French Normandy boys are kept for steers or service bulls.
