[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1735269, member: 40587"] Great disposition and a ton of sense. The more you handle them the better. We keep 30 or so steers at this boy's house, where our practice arena is. Every week, his 2 kids...elementary age... bring the3 steers up from the pasture to the arena on their ponies. They then put them in the stripping chute and wrap their horns. Truth be told, it is more like the ponies follow the steers to the arena. We have one steer that after the heeler releases, will walk up to the header horse and lean his head in for you to take the rope off. This weekend we will tag and steer the calves that have been born the last 3-4 weeks to our 83 head of Corriente cows. These are the cows that people on here bashed me about because they might see a human 4 times a year, and this weekend and at weaning in August, is the only time we round them up and handle them. We will be able to just ride up to and get off and tag (and cut, if bull calves) the newest ones, and heel the 3-4 week old ones. Their mommas will just stand by them and watch...might blow or snort a little...but won't make any attempt to hurt us. [/QUOTE]
