[QUOTE="lukem86, post: 198122, member: 1403"] Thank you for all of the responses... very helpful... these are 1st calf heifers, all bred to a good calving ease bull... Another question.... I know this will depend on each individual animal, but in general how willing is momma to let you get your hands on the calf the first day? All I would like to do is get a tag in their ear as soon as possible (i dont know how easy it will be to catch them when they are much older, unless i run them through the chute a couple months from now) I have had mommas locked in the barnyard for most of the winter, and can walk up to a few of them to pet them, others have a pretty good disposition as well... Thanks again for the help... [/QUOTE]
