There's a first calver out here that did that a couple of weeks before calving last year. Now, she's doing it when she's in heat and riding the others. Guess its a weak vaginal wall? One more (terminal) calf outta her, and she goes to McDonalds.....
Weak Vaginal Wall, thats what i think too. I've always culled against it too except for the black cow i was talking about. i had kept several of her daughters before and all of them are good cows so far. i probably wont cull them just b/c she got a little loose in her oldern days, but i'll keep a mental note in case they have any other strikes against them down the road. this cow did have problems with her first calf, but i havent noticed her vagina except for right before that 9th calf. shes already had number 10 with no problems.
