[QUOTE="Katpau, post: 1586577, member: 9933"] I guess the question is, are you willing to pass the problem on? If you sell her as a pair, she will probably do this in the next herd. If you sell at auction, I expect the buyer may break the pair up and resell the calf anyway. You usually get more money that way. I would either wean early or separate her and her calf from the herd for another month until the calf is a little bigger. I prefer calves to be 5-6 months when I wean, but weaning at 4 months is not uncommon in some situations. [/QUOTE]
