[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 361146, member: 852"] I saw three heifers on the dairy that would not let their milk down without oxytocin. Two graduated to being off oxytocin several months later and the next lactation were fine. The third had the same problem next lactation and was shipped. 2 liters... around 2 quarts, isn't it? that's the right amount for a calf at one feeding. IMO everything's fine so long as the heifer can be "weaned" off oxytocin within the week. The stuff's addictive so be careful how much and how often you give it. Keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
