[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1697186, member: 24027"] Their bag will get hard; the equivalent of carrying around a bowling ball between their legs. The blood may be due to an abrasion, possibly the calfs' teeth. Re: aforementioned cow, I went out one morning and the skin around the bottom part of her teat was gone & her teat was bloody. Yowza! Took her to the vet and he said it was probably from the calf (appropriately named Big Mouth Bass) nursing aggressively but she also could have stepped on it & ripped it off, trying to get up. When the teats get that large, they're not soft & pliable; think of a tomato that's so ripe the skin splits. [/QUOTE]
