Can you start milking a dry cow and she will begin to produce milk again without having her bred and calve I was told that you can do this by a person who owns Jersey cows and claims to have done it?
It can be done: I've seen a heifer get another heifer that has not been bred and not produce a calf start milking all because another one was suckling her. But there are some concerns that come with such a practice:Introduction of mastitis by "forcing" her to lactate,Not as much milk may be produced as the cow would if she calved,You would have to keep up the activity of milking her everyday without getting any milk (which takes time and patience) until you DO get milk from her,It's harder work getting a dry cow to start milking again yourself than to simply breed her, wait nine and a half months til she calves then simply start collecting milk from her.Some food for thought.

Will a cow's udder explode if they are not milked?
If you stop milking a cow, the udder will get really big, but will not explode. The milk will slowly diminish and the udder will get back to normal size after a while, and she will not be giving milk any more. Of course, to get her to start milking again, she will need to give birth to another calf. However, you can get her back milking again if you start milking before she completely dries up, but she will likely be producing less than initially.
How long can you leave a milking cow without milking it and then restart the milking She is with the bull at the moment but we would still like to milk her when she comes home?
This will depend on how much milk she is still producing once she comes home. If her udder is still looking full you may be able to start milking her again. Keep in mind that she might have mastitis, treat it as you normally, and begin milking her. It is probably a good idea to see if she does have mastitis either way, if she does treat it and dry her off if she is not able to milk. A month should not be too harmful to her, if she was producing milk before hand, however, anywhere longer than that you might not be able to begin the milking process.
