[QUOTE="cypressfarms, post: 755766, member: 2653"] One of the longhorn heifers that recently calved has the weirdest udder. I've never seen this before; The front quarters are small but functional. The rear quarters are not nipple shape and don't appear to be able to produce milk. I'm not sure if the calf will make it, but she's a fighter. Almost everytime I go out, the calf is working over the front nipples. Has anyone ever seen this? I'm assuming this is genetic - both will be going to the stockyard the next time I work the cows. I can't see this getting any better, that's for sure. Here are a couple of pics: Calf working on front quarter, you can see rear quarter [img]http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c28/cypressfarms/udder1.jpg[/img] View from behind at both rear quarters: [img]http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c28/cypressfarms/udder2.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
