[QUOTE="Henarar, post: 2618748, member: 5961"] it makes sense some cows after being dry do start to bag up a fare while before they calve so I take it they are making colostrum ? so if the same cow was not dried of and the calf is still sucking her she can't do this, or she can but the old calf will have it. I know some cows will dry of on there own more than a month before they calve and that's fine if the old calf is still there, but some don't I think leaving the calf on the cow till she calves again may well be asking for trouble the first feed of colostrum is the most important feed the calf will have IMHO [/QUOTE]
