[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 991983, member: 17767"] chippie, thanks for finding that. I had to cull a cow because she had udders about like the one rated #1. A couple of the udders were so large that the calf could not nurse them and she was prone to getting mastitis. Rosielou, the illustration posted by chippie demonstrates the variation in form that occurs in cows udders. That order of variety is a function of the genetic diversity that occurs in every organism from an amoeba to a Homo sapien. In the breeding and production of cattle, we are actually trying to narrow that diversity to favor those traits that we covet. [/QUOTE]
