Chillin' with the herd
My Alpine kidded two weeks ago and even before she kidded, one of her udders was larger than the other one. Now it has knots in it and the milk is very chunky. I have been milking that side every evening (the kids have been drinking off of that side during the day) as well as doing a warm compress, peppermint oil massage and giving her vitamin C. The kids seem to be doing well and the knots have gotten a little smaller but I am concerned that it could be a bigger issue than I know of. My husband has agreed that if the knots and swelling don't go down by Thursday, I am going to call the vet out but we are trying to cure her homeopathically, if we can. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you
