What does MULEY mean in Scrabble?
noun
dialectNorth American
A cow or other animal born without horns, especially a hornless breed of cattle.
A muley is naturally polled rather than horned, either because of its breed or an individual genetic trait, so farmers do not need to dehorn it. The word appears chiefly in North American and dialect farming speech, sometimes spelled mulley or mooley. Muley can also function as an adjective describing any hornless animal, most often cattle.
