Robots milking cows? It is a common thing — very much like the robotic arms that you see in auto manufacturing plants, but these robots are so gentle the ladies never seem to notice. In fact, it is just part of the pampering process at Hickory Hill Milk in Edgefield, South Carolina. The dairy herd there receives 24/7 attention — all part of making the finest milk we have ever had!
