I recently purchased a 3 yr old cow in her 3rd period of gestation. Since that time she has calved but never had any milk. I got her in and tried to milk her out when I noted that the calf did not appear to be getting stronger (on the second day after birth). Her udder was all caked up and no milk in the tits (several attempts were made to get milk to no avail). I lost the calf. Does any one have any experience with this type of thing and what is the prognosis for the cow, that is, will she have milk with the next calf or not.
