Hi Adam thanks for the reminder! Lube her up w some kind of udder cream.
Some crops of kids can really bang on those teats. Two or four, its a good thing to start putting some on shortly after they kid a few times a week or so.

My ff cringes every time if I try to milk her without some Corn Huskers' lotion on her teats. They just look like they want to chap.
