[QUOTE="dun, post: 164105, member: 34"] I just looked at the pictures so I'm getting into this late. Large teats can make it difficult for a new born calf to nurse. But I wouldn;t have culled any of them. WHile it is a possibility that the udder (not utter) would break down and or the tests continue to enlarge with subsequent calves, it ain;t always the way things work out. In the long run she may not last as long as the others, but you can never tell. She also looks like she has just calved, engorment of teats isn;t all that unusual at calving, after nursing for a day or two they frequently recede in size. At the dollar value of todays calves, I'ld keep the young lady around until at least the udder/teats really break down or the bottom falls out of the calf market and you need to cull deeper. dun [/QUOTE]
