Hi
As in previous posts, Boer 2nd kidder had triplets. I've been feeding smallest in the hope he wouldn't bother about fighting for a teat as much.
REALLY didn't want to take them off and milk her because I have a problem with my knee, major problems sitting on my little buffet.
yesterday I noticed blood on her leg, and found the back of each teat was like a big scab. obviously now taken kids off, problems getting 3 week olds onto bottle, tried to milk her this morning and tonight, got about 750ml off her tonight, 40 mins and knee hurts like hell.
BUT main problem is as I'm milking (and she's going up, forward, back, sideways etc) it is bleeding again, only seeping but worrying, obviously tried to be gentle but small teats don't give much room for avoidance. I've put some udder cream on, not sure whether that was wise or not.
Any ideas please?
