[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1773504, member: 42782"] I have had some trouble milking by hand share milking so I got a machine to milk my heifer. Share milking Pro- 1.you don't have the 'udder slavery' having be there for the evening milking. 2. the cow's udder gets stripped out by the calf, less chance of mastitis. Con- The dadgummed cow holds up her cream because she knows the calf is on next, they can turn of their letdown like a faucet. This dairy raises the calf on her colostrum, keeps the calf near the cow at first but does not let the calf suck. Probably, these cows have been machine milked all their lives. They are not holding up milk and cream for their calf and they get stripped out. [/QUOTE]
