Guest guest Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 ---Hello Suze, Our fresh warm milk a few days ago was 11.5. Our cow has been in a dry lot around 6 weeks eating alfalfa and grass baled last summer and getting around 3/4 gallon of ground hulled barley daily. Was wondering of others milk values for comparison. Today I got to put the cow out on fresh green wheat pasture so she'll start giving more milk soon unless it rains or snows tonight as the forecast indicates.
