The bulls with udders, along with the infertility problems, are side effects of steroid medication (to make them grow faster) of the animals by the farmer.

Otis is Transgender
Otis is a transgender cow who was turned into a steer, but they forgot to remove the udders.

Alternately, Otis is a Bifauxnen
And a lesbian, apparently.

More Alternately, Otis is Intersex
Otis is a freemartin who identifies as male.

The farmer is a Mad Scientist
Otis and his "father" Ben are the results of the farmer's sick, twisted experiments, creating a female cow with a male cow's personality, behaviors, and identity. Additionally, Freddie the "ferret" is actually an abomination created by the farmer by fusing several different species' genetic codes together into an unholy combination that does not even remotely resemble a real ferret in appearance or personality, and is only called such to hide the fact that he's actually the result of a disturbing fusion. Freddie's parents were also created by the farmer as additional cover-up - if they appear to be a family, then it's not nearly as obvious that they were engineered into existence.

The TV show is an alternate reality from the Movie
Ben and Daisy never existed. Otis "raised" himself growing up, which is why he can't even spell his own name on the show; nor has he learned his lessons on responsibility. Bessie arrived with the calf Joey (instead of Daisy) at the farm during the movie's timeline and Abby got there later (which is why Bessie knew who Wild-Mike was while Abby didn't). Duke, while he still isn't respected as leader, doesn't have the same deep rooted jealously that was seen in the movie either.

Wild Mike is a young Bigfoot
He was either abandoned or orphaned when he was little, then later wandered onto the farm. No one knows about this because Wild Mike hasn't grown up or gotten any bigger.

Dag and his pack are actually coyote-wolf hybrids.
  • It's possible for both species to produce offspring, one of which is known as the eastern coyote. Not only due these hybrids grow bigger than the average western coyotes, they also possess a reddish coat which is somewhat similar to Dag's.

Pig isn't Pig's real name
He just goes by the nickname "Pig" because his real name is far too embarrassing to discuss.

The farm is actually a sanctuary for farm animals.
Explaining why farmer (who is a vegan) is able to maintain such a menagerie of animals, despite not making any profit from their milk or eggs.
