Milk let down question
My girl seems to let one quarter down later than the other 3. Is that normal? It's like, you can milk for about 3 or 4 minutes on the others and that one will have hardly anything and then when you think you're about done, here comes the milk in that 4th quarter. Is that normal? Been a while since I had a cow and my goats seem to let down all at once. LOL!

Well, it's an aggravating game! LOL! I'm out there knowing all I need to do is get that last bit of milk out so I can go to bed and whalah....more milk! LOL! At least now I know she's not the only cow. I thought maybe something was wrong with her. LOL!
