[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1744456, member: 19683"] Definitely something to do with maternal thing. We only had one heifer not let to nurse her calf in almost 20 years. She would lick a calf when he was lying down, but would go mad if the calf stood up. However, she would stand still for us to be milked. She was one of our first cows, so haven't sold her. She let to nurse only for her 3rd calf, but never looked back since then. No problems with her daughters though. Now would just cull the heifer as there are plenty of possible replacements waiting in the line. [/QUOTE]
