[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1540419, member: 24027"] I still calve out my heifers at the barn, primarily to make sure they mother-up. Years ago I just happened to pull into the pasture right as one of my heifers successfully calved. She got up, took one look at her calf & hit the road. It was bitterly cold so ended up taking the calf to the barn to clean it up, get it warm. When we went back the heifer was trying to gank another calf. Penned them together for a week before she would claim her own calf. That cow is now pregnant with her 7th calf, turned out to be one of my best cows, but I'm still scarred. [/QUOTE]
