Brute, so when a cow doesn't want her calf, but another cow's calf.. what do you do?
What about people who send their cattle onto range... they gotta be branded and identified, and if you have 100 momma cows and 100 calves in a pen, you aren't going to know which is which, so it's too late. If you want to tag 100 calves and figure out which is which, you certainly aren't going to be doing it alone... if you get them at birth, it's no problem.
You sound a lot like Cowgirl8.. you know how to do it, and anyone who doesn't do it like you do must be a hobby farmer and cant' know which end of the cow gets up first.
Back to the original topic, if the cow makes you uncomfortable, get rid of her, whether it's play or aggression.
I just ask my cows to know the difference between me and a predator.. I have no use for nutcases... Yeah, the guys in the video, especially the guy shooting the video could quite possibly have been doing something more useful at the time. That kind of momma cow is the kind that ran me into the fence 2 weeks ago.. and her calf (if she had one) would have been 10 months old...
