[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1004695, member: 9096"] Well, this heifer calved on saturday, a 90 lb bull calf, and both are doing well... the teats were a little tender and she wanted to kick, so I tied her to a post and put the kicker clamp on her, and once the calf was done, I milked out the worst quarter a couple times, seems to be good milk, and she's behaving a lot better now. Baby is jumping and running about too I heard Peanut oil injected into the teat is something many dairy farmers around here do since it has no withholding time, but you'd have to catch it early for it to do any good As for the sores, I think they could just be from the udder filling up fast and the skin not stretching quickly enough.. I put some iodine on them and I'll see what happens. she doesn't' have the best udder, and I figure I'll keep her a couple years and she'll either be shipped or frozen... Her mother just had her 11th daughter last night which will make a replacement for her [/QUOTE]
