This post should now be disregarded. As the most discussed of my ideas, realistic cow milking can be discussed here:

first of all, search bar wouldv found 3/4ths of your suggestion

secondly, the entire temperature thing is already in the making, its just hard to make an update every day

the wood plank thing was already suggested numerous times (including me)

and finally: the female cow stuff, their not humans, cows produce milk non stop, the only creature to dry up is human (along with some other animals, cows are at least not among these)

not true cows are constantly bred to keep producing milk and if they stopped there milk would stop too.

if they'd breed a cow 24/7 and get it pregnant the entire time, first of all it'd collapse under the drain of nutrients, and secondly, we'd be swimming in cows by now, my statement is true, my neighbour holds cows and i've spend a lot of time there as a kid

they dont breed the cow 24/7 they get the cow pregnant have a calf and after a certain period breed again. Other wise cows would not make milk.

Now I know more than I did before about milk production.

The Internets do seem to back up the breeding to lactation angle:

We are swimming in cows... ever driven through central Texas? Nothing but cows... there are feed lots that stretch horizon to horizon. (Hold your nose if you go looking for them.)

well my main idea about the temperature thing was cloth underclothing, looms and looms

about the whittling thing, i know it was suggested by others (i just didn't know it was on the forums itself), it's just if bioxx saw that so many people wanted it, it would more likely be added

about the cow milking thing, looked it up, internet supports me

i have lived next to a dairy and it was so bad. Some days you could smell it for miles
