I ran the stats to see  if litter size played some role in mastitis. What this shows is very interesting . I have always been told the smaller the litter the more likely to get mastitis . These numbers defiantly show the opposite . I would like to see larger numbers in the survey to  see if this trend continues.
Total mastitis numbers may in reality be larger because I got many emails from people saying they automatically put their nursing females on antibiotics to prevent mastitis .
