it's called a cattle crush. (It doesn't actually crush the cow of course) You operate it with a foot pedal and it just closes so that the cow's head is held gently between two bars while the vet examines it or ear tags are put in etc.

Aw, she's talking about a crush! My mind was boggling about what a "rape cage" was Hmm. Our vet and DH inseminate in the old milk shed with old fashioned stalls, we don't use the crushes for that.

I believe Dairy cows have a much harder life than meat cows.

I've never had a milkshake. Ever.

I might give them a whirl.

Sorry Pauline.

This ended up a weird thread. Is Pauline perhaps planning on writing 50 Shades of Moo?

How can a thread about milkshakes go wrong? Confused I mean it's surely one of the least offensive topics
But no, milkshakes are a meal, not to have alongside a meal. They make you fat. Or bloated. Or something something to do with cows. I read the first line of that post and scrolled past. It's a milkshake, not crack

MILKSHAKE!

Went to Glastonbury while 7 months pregnant with DD1. As the cider bus was out of bounds, I spent the weekend drinking gorgeous banana milkshakes.

Ok so some extremes have been mentioned but, the milk and egg industry are repugnant to a vegan for logical reasons . Along the way animals are killed to get the end product. The insemination methods can be debated , but that fact remains .
So many vegans can't understand how a vegetarian can drink milk and eat eggs .
Just sayin!
I love coconut milk and fruit shakes- but not with my lunch op!

I use coconut milk to make milk shakes too, it's nicer with fruit.

Is that really what that song is about?
Well bugger me.
For once I actually thought something was ruder than it was.

I used to bloody love a nice cold Crusha, made in the blender with a bit of ice cream, natch. Haven't had one since an unfortunate hyperemisis incident but maybe it's time to bite the bullet.

HappyYoni, the egg helps the milkshake stay frothy and thickens it without making it gloopy. It also adds protein (my db was an athlete in those pre-Edwina's-egg-scare days).

I love nesquick milkshake. I don't like thick ready made ones. I never use ice cream when I make a milkshake . I also lost 90kilos over 2-3 years by drinking milkshake and having one meal a day. I love milkshake and would happily live on them. Exception to thick milkshake is mcd strawberry. Still I don't bother because of the long wait

A cafe near us makes milk shakes with ice cream. They do a chocolate brownie one which has lumps of brownie in it, it is scrummy. They even deliver, we might have to have one tonight.
