[QUOTE="ClinchValley, post: 1388033, member: 24719"] I thought i saw a calf chasing a cow that wasn't her Momma a couple days ago. Well, caught the cow nursing her calf and another yesterday at the same time. Her calf is maybe 3 weeks old. The thief would be about 3.5 months old. I'm sure its hard on the Momma. She's an 8 yr old Sim. She is in good shape as of now. But has me not liking it. I'm sure it is stealing from her calf, whom i was very excited when i saw was a heifer. So don't want her to get the shot end of the stick. I suppose its good to have a laid back cow. But this situation cannot be good, right? The thief's Momma is my least favorite cow. This cow was my first, given to me by my Grandfather. She was bred too small/young and never recovered after calving. She is small. Probably 900-1000 lbs if i had to guess. She grows a heck of a calf so far. The thief is growing fine. But i wonder how long she has been stealing milk without my noticing it. What to do? Should i separate her and her momma from the group? Let it go? Since seeing the law being broken i haven't seen the thief nurse her Momma. Going to verify that today. Do some calves simply want more? I'm wondering if the thief's Momma is going to be the problem. [/QUOTE]
