Cows gone mad.

The weirdest thing yesterday 2 of my cows started to bump heads for a good long time one is a older dominant cow 6 year old and the other is 4 the 4 year old cow won but wont stop chasseing her all over. But now today I see that older cow and my little calf that was born 2/14/07 bumping heads and when the cow would turn and run the calf would chases and pump her rear end till she was out of there??and the 4 year old cow would soon start the chases. her is pic of calf

Sounds to me like one of them might be coming on heat! Do both cows have calves? How long since they had them?
