[QUOTE="I luv herfrds, post: 647162, member: 5917"] Like dun says separate them, but I would watch the angus cow and calf. Some also rob just because they can, but I would definately watch that pair and see if the cow is milking well. What I look for is the milk foam around the calf's mouth. See if the calf is doing an extreme amount of butting on the bag and is desperately trying to get milk. Calf will be going from teat to teat and butting; this will go on for quite awhile. If the calf butts a couple of times and just continues to nurse and doesn't act desperate then the calf is just robbing because it can. [/QUOTE]
