      Как корова языком слизала.

      Чья бы корова мычала, а твоя бы молчала.

      Молоко у коровы на языке: как покормишь, так и подоишь.

          @sundogplanets In Dutch: (Je moet geen) Oude koeien uit de sloot halen - (one should not be) getting old cows out of the ditch: you should not harp on about grievances or wrongdoings from the past.

          Bij de pinken zijn: Being with the yearlings (bullocks). Being clever, alert, witty.

                  Where are cows born in the UK? Uddersfield.
                  Why can't cows stay still? Because they're always moo-ving.
                  All the above it true or it could be utter bullocks.

                    "There's no cow on the ice" (original in Swedish)

                    Apparently the full saying was "There's no cow on the ice so long as the butt is on land"

                              When the calf has drowned, one fills the well.

                              I guess this will apply to Kessler syndrome too.

                              There isn't a cow so piebald or it has a speck.

                              Meaning: no smoke without fire, there must be some thruth to the rumor.

                                    @sundogplanets I was gonna say "closing the barn door after the cows have left", but from what I can tell, the more common form of this idiom is "closing the barn (or stable) door after the horse has bolted".

                                          For no reason at all, please give me your favourite cow-related figures of speech! (Stuff like "No use crying over spilled milk" or "until the cows come home", puns extremely welcome)
