[QUOTE="Logan52, post: 1648054, member: 32879"] I have had cows here where I live since 1972 and never had this problem before. Usually kept my own replacements from a milky line of cows. This spring I bought a couple of 3 in 1 packages, gray charolais cross with smoke calves at side, said to be 1 to 3 months bred. Some age on them but in fair shape and they have picked up weight since I have lots of grass. Sold big 700 pound calves off them about a month ago. This past week one of them calved with about a 60 pound heifer calf. The cow has a bag not much bigger than a softball. Most of my cows always have a large bag and almost drip milk at this stage. The cow must have been 3 months bred when I bought her. Since I wanted to sell all the calves at the same time, ended up leaving the calf on her too long. She claims the calf and it stayed hid a couple of days. It follows her everywhere now, It doesn't bawl but looks a little gaunt. Will she come to her milk on good fall grass or do I have a problem?
