I noticed while checking my oil level on the dipstick that the oil seemed very milky like, what would this mean. I just changed the oil only a week ago or do I really want to know.

we've got a fergy 20, and just changed the oil. It was milky aswell. Apparently, water trickles down the gear lever into the transmission case. Is your tractor stored outside, uncovered? check the oil-filling bung beside the lever. Is the seal still there? hope this helps

How's your coolant level? Milky oil is a symptom of water getting in the oil. A couple of possibilties:
Bad head gasket
Cracked head
Could even be a bad freeze plug (aka soft plug) most likely in the head.
Also other possibilities.
Let's hope it's minor., Does the oil level seem unusually high? Another sign of water getting in there.
Good luck.
Chuck
