[QUOTE="alisonb, post: 1247133, member: 13050"] ...but why???? Things usually happen for a reason... Boondocks - Intercalary teats are found between the normal teats, ramal teats are those that sort of grow off of another teat. Caudal teats are the little ones that usually grow at the back as 'extra' teats. It is hereditary. In some cases the supernumerary teat can produce milk. We used to just snip them off with a pair of scissors when the calf was still young. You shouldn't have a problem as long as you make sure the calf is drinking off the 4 normal teats and getting adequate milk. [/QUOTE]
