[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 507304, member: 852"] National average on a dairy is about 1.6 lactations. Owned by an individual and living on a farm in similar-to-beef-cow conditions... might give you 10 years. Maybe more. I've seen 13+ y/o nurse cows. The two biggest reasons for culling are udder and repro problems, so as long as yours holds up and breeds back you should get plenty of years out of her. My 311 nurse cow is 7 or 8 years old now, and I don't see her dropping over anytime soon. [/QUOTE]
