Laravel 5.3の更新行が、nullのメンバー関数update（）にコールを返します。

Question

データベースの行を更新する際に問題が発生しました。私が更新フォームを提出するとすぐに、返信とエラーCall to a member function update() on null誰かが私がここで間違っていることを教えてもらえますか？

マイコード：

public function update(Request $request){ 
     $user = Auth::user(); 
     $uid = $user->farmTag; 

     $cowValues = array(
      'KilledOn' => $request['KilledOn'], 
      'EID' => $request['EID'], 
      'ManagementI/D' => $request['ManagementID'], 
      'name' => $request['name'], 
      'breed' => $request['breed'], 
      'sex' => $request['sex'], 
      'DOB' => $request['DOB'], 
      'BoughtOn' => $request['BoughtOn'], 
      'description' => $request['description'], 
      'farmTag' => $uid, 
    ); 

     Cow::find($request['EID'])->update($cowValues); 

     return back(); 

    } 

全エラー：

それは牛 `のように見えるこの

$cow = Cow::where('EID', $request->input('EID'))->first(); 

if($cow) 
{ 
    $cow->update($cowValues); 
}
