I got a 2 year old piedmontese heifer that had a calf and the calf was fine except it was always nursing her which at first i thought was great but after awhile i reasoned that she was not giving enough milk and her bag was never very full looking.the calf was healthy but not growing real good so i put her and her momma n with a nurse cow.the calf now nurses from both animals and is growing alot better.the jersey has been milking for 6 months so she will b able to raise this calf.so do u think i should go ahead and pull the birth mother off of leave her with her baby? do u think she will milk better the next time or should i get rid of her? her mom is a good milker.
