[QUOTE="regolith, post: 664608, member: 9267"] Hard to tell from a photo, but she'll probably get a lot looser than that before she calves... and in my experience some cows drop noticably in milk around the seven month (gestation) mark then return to full production if not dried off. It's been a while - this was an observation on all year round calving herds. Having done your AI course, you might want to check her out for yourself. If the calf feels full size or close to, get the suckling calf off. Five weeks dry is about a minimum to avoid any negative effect on next year's production. [/QUOTE]
