[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 243047, member: 852"] Other way around, Brandon. Milk production drops over time - that's just nature. A beef cow isn't giving much milk at 180 days in milk when you wean that calf. As far as dairy cows, most of them put on weight as their milk production declines. I find that I can usually make a pretty good guess as to a cow's production just based on her body condition. :lol: I heard about a cow like the one mentioned too - 50,000lb cow that milked for 3 years straight and they could not get her to settle. Think in the end they had to dry her off before she'd breed, but I'm not certain. Don't remember all the little details. [/QUOTE]
