[QUOTE="VaCowman, post: 1647585, member: 33135"] My cattle do that too (no brimmer influence). I can do anything I want with my cows as long as I am by myself. If I bring company (kids, etc.) they are extra cautious and will head for the back 40. I have learned to do like you do and pen the cows by myself prior to any working, hauling, etc. or else it will not happen. Its amazing how keen they are to their surroundings. I've taken just one kid with me to check cows and stayed in truck while I was walking through cows. Given, the 6 year old wasn't exactly sitting still the whole time, but he did good. Those cows grabbed up those calves and started easing over the hill as soon as I got out of the truck. I get in trouble with the wife sometimes for not "taking the kids with you, they are begging to go" when I am working or trying to catch cattle to haul...she still doesn't get it because same thing happens when she tags along. :LOL: [/QUOTE]
