The floor of the udder is just that- The floor of the udder. The shape of the udder is determined by the medial and lateral suspensatory ligaments. Poor ligaments mean a saggy, mastitis prone, misshapen udder.

What happens to a mother goats milk if the baby goat dies?

A mother goat's milk will build up if the baby dies, and dry out eventually if it is a meat or fibre goat. If it is a dairy goat, milking will be necessary, or the goat's udder will burst and no one will ever be able to milk it again. Kids on a dairy goat help keep the udder from, at best, distending, or at worst, bursting. Milking also helps the goat get used to the milking routine.

How do you tell when a cow has a bad bag?

The udder must be tucked up neatly between the hind legs and the teats should be small. Each quarter of the udder should be equally spaced, and the udder itself has a level udder floor. Often this is hard to see if the cow has a calf and the calf has only suckled on one or two quarters and not all four. But typically a cow should not have an udder that hangs down past her hocks, have large teats, nor have the teats spaced too close together.

What do call a cows milk bag?

The Udder.


At what stage does the udder form?

Are you meaning fetal development, or in a heifer? In the heifer, the udder starts to form as her unborn-calf develops, although this development can vary dramatically from heifer to heifer. Some fully bag-up (are full of milk) weeks before the calf is born; some do not get a full udder right before or right after the birth. The breed of cow also influences the size and development of the udder. Udder development continues during lactation. The udder stretching by being full of milk, and the calf nursing on the teats, helps to increase the size of the udder in the young cow. By the second birth, the udder will often be larger and really show the cow (goat, sheep's) potential as a milk-producer.
