    Cow has calving interval of 320 for last lact

    She must have been still milking a fair drop when you dried her off so? Your another poor soul at this wintermilk also so?

    Got caught off Gaurd, first one today 14 days early, Pbm heifer calf hardy little fecker
    Cow has calving interval of 320 for last lact, 3rd calver held to first service every time

    Going onto OAd tomorrow, don't fancy paying super levy fine next summer
    ye think we will have to bear the shorter gestation in mind when drying off, had a cow had pbm heifer twins that had a longer gestation than some of the cows that had pbm singles:confused::confused: out of interest what time will you do your one milking a day at?
