[QUOTE="regolith, post: 848975, member: 9267"] That's a good idea, thanks Rodderz. I had a five year old cow calve develop a teat pea a couple of years ago and the vet dilated the teat canal and removed it, and put her on antibiotics. And I have to say, this feels similar, as if it might be a 'pea' blocking it. The thing is, with this farm if I use antibiotics the cow is out of the herd and in a quarantine paddock for three weeks, so I didn't want to go that route. Did you have to leg-rope/restrain the cow to do that? She hasn't much appreciated my attempts to get milk out of that quarter. How's your grass going? I've ordered PKE, don't think there's any way I could get through the spring without. There was reasonable grass cover on this farm when I arrived but no hay or silage. [/QUOTE]
