Cows keep their milk up in their stomachs, therefor you have to convince her to let it down for you. This can be done by washing the bag with warm water. Calves will bunt their moms bellies to tell her to let the milk down. Will she tolerate that? Hope it helps! Remember, your "living the dream"! Good luck!
