[QUOTE="Wisteria Farms, post: 1115295, member: 6734"] That cracked me up about kicking her udder along so as not to step on her teats... that is too funny... That's imressive that Rosie gave you three daughters in a row (11 total WOW)... and that kind of plays into why we kept Granny... (with her broke down udder) We bought her with a heifer at her side (a long time ago I posted pictures under Murray Grey Cow) and that heifer was the one named Randi... Randi is the spitting image of her momma. Anyway, after having Randi, she just kept giving us ALL BOYS until 2012 when we FINALLY got a 2nd heifer out of her. In 2013 it was ANOTHER bull...and we had to really help him learn to get the teat because they hang so low. We debated THEN about that bull being her last but I just wanted one more heifer out of her so we bred her back... She was a beautiful cow, great temperament, great feet, great momma so I really am hoping for one more girl to carry on her legacy here...as I know this is definately her last... [/QUOTE]
