i got a call from my father in law yesterday. i havent been out there for about 4 days cause he took a few days off and was the weekend to boot. so he said he has a hiefer that he couldnt get to take a calf. he left her in a small dark pen, tried skinning the old calf and tying to the one grafting on and a few other things i cant think of off hand. said she would let him suck once in awhile from back but yesterday just kept trying to get away from him. i asked him why he didnt just hobble her and he said he didnt have cow hobbles. so i drove out there put a set of hobbles that i have for horses on her. I guess my question is what are hobbles made specifically for cows and how are they different? i would imagine if they perform the same task they shouldnst look that much different. thanks ahead of time
