  • A cow has four stomachs, which are called the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. These stomachs work together to help the cow digest its food.

Cows actually only have one stomach, however it has four different compartments or chambers to it, so you will hear them being described as having four stomachs.

Cows, like other ruminants such as sheep and goats, have one stomach with four compartments. These compartments are called the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. This unique digestive system allows cows to efficiently digest tough plant materials through a process called rumination.

A cow has four compartments in its stomach, not four separate stomachs as is frequently erroneously accepted. These compartments are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and stomach. Each compartment takes on a particular part in the assimilation cycle of the cow, allowing it to effectively process its plant-based diet.
