[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 531715, member: 852"] TB -- I understood what BB was getting at; my issue wasn't so much with the fact that a good dairy cow does produce more than 4 calves need, but rather with the statement that putting calves on a good dairy cow will ruin her. That last statement I definitely disagree with. I treat my nurse cows a little different than some people do... my cows will take 2-4 calves and raise them anywhere from 2 to 8 months. Calves stay on pasture with the nurse cow 24/7 and I generally let them have every bit of milk the cow produces. The only exception is if I want a bit of milk myself as well. [/QUOTE]
