[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 416373, member: 6713"] My buddy had the same thing with a second calf, problem was the first one was not ever weaned,and no one realized it because the first calf was kept witht the herd for replacement. They were apart for 2 months and we just didn't ever see her suck her mother antil the second calf was born. The cow dropped the calf and wouldn't even look at it, even tried to kill it. We sent the yearling down the road to be bred to another bull(besides her father) If she is still trying to nurse when she comes back she's going to the sale. I've heard this kind of cow will steal milk her whole life if she can. Anybody else have that experience. [/QUOTE]
