[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 17762"] The hair on the udder around the teats will have a swirly look as if the have been wet, it will also be kind of glued to the udder or upper teat. Hard to explain (for me anyway). It's not unusual for a calf to only nurse from a couple of teats te first several days, then as their requirements increase they'll start working on the others. One year we had all left hand calves. They would nurse the left side teats completely and ignored the right side. Within 4-5 days they started on the others and finally by a week had balanced everything out. dun > I had a cow that just calved > either late on the 25th or early > the 26th.
