[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1619931, member: 24816"] I think I already know the answer or at lest what I’ve always thought. We have a heifer that calved around 3 weeks ago. She milks some but not a lot evidently the calf was often nursing her or trying to steal milk from the other heifers in the field. We pulled her off and are bottling her now. Normally I would cull for that but my thinking is she won’t bring much at the yards. If she would do better another year it might be worth keeping her and trying again I just don’t know. [/QUOTE]
