I wrote earlier about my doe kidding and one half of her udder was hard. I never got it to milk out much and now it is dry. Tonight when I milked her I was massaging her udder trying to coax more milk out when I noticed a lump had broken open. I thought the lump was just part of the "hardness" of her udder but now I think she has an abcess. What should I do? The other side of her udder seems to be getting hard now and I am not getting as much milk out as I was two weeks ago. Her baby is still nursing so I don't know exactly how much milk she is making. (or how much the baby is drinking) I am now getting about 1/2 - 2/3 a cup of milk per milking. She is a Lamancha from good dairy lines.
