[QUOTE="Jake, post: 123715, member: 4"] An old cow that has continued to produce from year to year is an asset to the cowherd. There is no reason to junk the old rip because she steps on her bag. If she has the ability to raise multiple calves with no problems accept the 2 days of teaching her own calf to be the pay off. Her heifers could be kept to keep the productive side of the operation in tact but they should be sired by a lower milking, well uddered line. The bottom line of a commercial producer is to have EXTREMELY productive cows. Having them look nice is only a luxury that many cannot afford. NO matter how ugly she is with all the plus side attributes that I see you stating about her her only flaws are being ugly and having a bad bag. Keep her, she's not hurting your bottom line only your eyes and in times like you are going through you can't afford to send a cow like her down the road and keep one that isn't as productive, even if she does look better!
