[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 673796, member: 13"] I'm with Peg on this one. Actually, aren't cows color blind? Attitude is important. We've got one cow that's not even boss, but she'll jump on anything "new." Even if it's only been separated from the herd for a couple of days, a cow has to get past #21 to take her rightful position in the herd. The younger ones are usually pushed around by the older ones. And sometimes they seem to carry that pushing around with them through their lives. My 878 cow was the youngest, smallest, in her contemporary group when she was born in 2003. The bigger ones were mean to her. Today she still seems to prefer to stay by herself. Even though she does push the bred heifers around and will assert herself at the feed trough in winter, she usually hangs around the edges of the herd. [/QUOTE]
