due to the unique way in which we farm(incompetently) we ended up with late calving heifers this season.
I have noticed how much easier they have been to milk than the spring calvers.
does anybody have any ideas as to why this might be? and any suggested solutions? this spring was not pleasant especially when milking on my own.
only real differences in terms of diet have been less mag during the summer than they would have had in the spring.
I recognise that being xbreds they are more feisty and I'm all for that.
thank you
