The reason we call dairy animals 'Dairy animals" is not just because they lactate. but because they do so in abundance. meaning they produce more milk than that the baby needs to survive. For instance there are dairy cows who produce several gallons of milk a day. all of this milk production makes their bone and muscle structures smaller/weaker than what we would consider a meat cow. as their bodies will even scavenge itself inorder to produce milk.
Same thing in goats. We have Nigerian dwarf goats. They are a breed of dairy Goat. the awesome thing about them is they are 1/2 the size of a normal goat. They eat 1/2 the food but produce the same amount of milk as a full size goat and it is richer and sweeter.
So to keep three animals alive, you only need to feed one from your stock pile of resources. Feed one dairy goat she produces milk the will deed two or more babies. Not only that all you need to now store in resources is one type of hay/food. Rather than having to keep 100s of different types of food or even meat.
Other wise you would have to feed 3 adult animals an adult portion from your limited stock of resources. whether that be hay, meat or what have you
What makes more sense? feeding one type of animal (dairy goats or cows or whatever) from your stored up hay, or each adult animal an adult portion from the many different food stores you would then have to have to support all of them?
So lactating animals to feed baby animals for 300+ days drifting around doesn’t violate the two by two order?
I predict a half gainer with a 360 twirl for this maneuver
No.
The initial order was 2 of each, AND their food.
Not to mention God changed the 'order to make it 7 pairs of clean animals and 2 pairs of unclean at the time they were loaded into the ark.
