[QUOTE="novatech, post: 397421, member: 5494"] I can walk up to any cow I have even when they have a calf. What I cannot do is walk up to that calf until they are about 2 months old. I assume the cow will have me for lunch. I have had them charge at me in the past but they have always stopped short and shook their heads at me in a very threatening way. As far as hot shots go, I have had brahman cattle fight them all the more. It just makes a mean as- cow. The only time I have to use one is to get an overly docil cow into a chute. I guess over all cow are kind of like kids. Dun you are absolutely correct. I do not beleive there is any more important element when sellecting brahman influenced cattle than being docile. The biggest bonus is that you are more likely to have more tender beef. This trait is so important to the beef industry that Genestar of Aust. has gone through the trouble of isolateing the gene for it. Unfortunately they only test for it in Aust. at this time. [/QUOTE]
