[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1184333, member: 9267"] I don't really know why the poor milk availability, but I know in the dairy if you put the cups on a heifer with edema her teats will swell up as if there were no pulsation - once that happens you can't handmilk a drop no matter how good her hormonal let down is. The salix/lasix is a new one to me. The only tools I've had to work with are oxytocin and frequent milking and not letting the heifer get too sore. For some reason it's been no problem this calving season, though I've seen plenty edema it hasn't interfered with milk out. Other years it can be really frustrating. [/QUOTE]
