Re: calves running with the herd

[I & K Buckingham]

Have occasionally left the odd calf on its mum in the milking herd. Our experience has been very good calves and very little milk.   regards Ian Buckingham Maungatawhiri New Zealand Subject: calves running with the herd I milk 150 cows and have been thinking of leaving the calves on the cows in the herd for 3 months but don't know enough about it.  Can anyone shed any light on this at this herd size  Thank you Kym
