No way, bag balm is terrible stuff.  As far as udder and teat protection
goes, stick with Udder Ointment. It is not as greasy and is absorbed
faster, so it won't pick up dirt and crap from the yard. Also, Udder
Ointment contains sun-screen.  Bag Balm, because it doesn't absorb very
well, needs to be thouroughly washed off before milking, versus Udder
Ointment is gone by the time the next milking comes around.
