We had a cow calve on Sunday and I noticed that the calf wasn't sucking all the teats. So we brought her in and milked out the back right quarter and it had blood in it. Not a little bit either it had a lot. The quarter isn't overly hot -same as the rest of it. It was hard but I think hard as in full. No lumps came out. I got a little under a gallon out of it. Her calf is doing really good. Is this mastitis? and if it isn't what can I do to prevent it? I am going to milk her again this morning and most likely again tonight. I also gave her a shot of pen and have some mastitis treatment ready(in a syringe with a funny cap). I will take her temp this morning as well.
