[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1001883, member: 18809"] We had a heifer that was bred and in her last trimester and let one of the calves nurse on her. We did not notice it until we took her to an overnight show and she bagged up the next day. We separated her and the calf from then on, but when she calved herself her teats ballooned out for the first few days, and the breeder told us it was because she was sucked on hard enough to get her to start producing, which could have caused her teats to stretch out. Glad you got her separated. [/QUOTE]
