[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 342562, member: 852"] 75-plus. On the dairy where I worked, boss never removed extra teats. Most of the cows had four, but there were a handful with five or six. I did see one heifer with seven once. On my own herd... I've only removed extras on two heifers; the rest of the herd had four from birth. I haven't yet seen an extra teat on a fresh cow that was big enough to suck on and separate from the rest where a calf might mistake it for the real thing. [/QUOTE]
