There was a John Byrne story about 20 years later where a local town turned evil because they'd spent the past 10 years or so (in-universe) drinking the milk produced by those cows.

I think some of them also caused the Kree/Skrull War.

There was also a story by Morrison. The premise was that these cows ended up being slaughtered, tainting the meat used in burgers, and giving the people who ate them an incurable disease that gave them superpowers but also slowly drove them insane.

Which sucks for both the peaceful skrulls and the innocent people who just wanted a burger.

The ARPG Marvel Heroes has a 'cow level' as a nod to Diablo which involves fighting those Skrulls.

To be fair, the JLA brainwashed the White Martians into thinking they were regular humans and then one of them went nuts and became convinced he was Billionaire Playboy Bruce Wayne and went on a big gambling/boozing spree.

Worst case scenario for Skrull cows is that... well, those horrible things that everybody already mentioned DID happen.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

It depends because it is inconsistently written. It isn't supposed to (because he's Shazam now) but they forget.

Captain Marvel Jr's thing is that he was injured and couldn't walk without crutches when he wasn't transformed. He remained the same age, just got superpowers out of it.
