[QUOTE="CPL, post: 560503, member: 6346"] For a purebred herd... Get rid of her and mom. But if she was going into a commerical herd, I guess I'd want to know how long it took for the dam's udder to get that way. If she had a pretty sound udder at 6 or 7, I'd probably keep the calf because she'd definitely make some money until the udder got so bad you had to get rid of her (like the situtation now). But, if she have a ballooned udder at 2 yrs of age that'd be much different. I'd probably get rid of her. Her teats look too big already and I bet she'd cause you more trouble than earnings. [/QUOTE]
