[QUOTE="dun, post: 341323, member: 34"] Depending on the location of the extra, on dairy heifers they're sometimes removed just for the ease of machine milking. With beef heifers, unless somene is planning on showing them and they're real picky, most people leave them on. I've heard it claimed that the extra/blind teats confuse a calf so it doesn;t know which ones to nurse. That may be the case the first day or two, but after that it sure isn;t any problem. dun [/QUOTE]
