[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 74561, member: 173"] It's hard to milk a cow with teats like that also.. you have to really squeeze and pull to get something out. If she hasn't been milked out on those quarters, she probably has some swelling that makes it hard for the milk to come through the teat. Check the bottom of the teats for the "plug".. that's the hardest part to get out. She may not have a whole lot of milk in the front quarters. But I would try to get them stripped out if at all possible. Once you get them stripped, the teats will be smaller, and the calf may be able to nurse on them as well as the back ones. Good luck!
