[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 392382, member: 637"] I am not familiar with dairy cattle, but I was told that if you have a dairy cow that has a calf, she will produce more milk than the calf will be able to drink, therefore, you must milk the cow daily or it will cause mastitus. Seems she would produce less milk if her demand was only one calf instead of a dairy pulling all she can produce. If she has only been feeding one calf, then when you add the second calf, will her milk production pick up when both are being fed? Someone set me straight. I thought about adding a dairy cow before thinking of twins and other problems that could occur. Chuckie [/QUOTE]
