[QUOTE="BRAFORDMAN, post: 853235, member: 14817"] This happened in June Vet came and palpated cows in June. Out of 45 head 5 were open. 3 had 1 month old calves and the other 2 were heifers who i saw being bred a week prior so it could have been to early to tell. Alot better than out of 50 head 16 were open last year. The vet checked one of my hereford cows at 3 months. She did not have a calf on her she calved late last year(bought bred) and i held her over. Well less than a week after being palpated she bagged up completely with a full udder and strutting teats. Her back end was not extremely loose but was not tight either. A week or two later her bag goes down and her backend is still about the same. She is still fat and i am certain she did not abort or calve. Can palpation stimulate milk production? [/QUOTE]
