[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 914213, member: 3972"] Like you, most of my "lead" cows are not the boss cows. Also, in my herd, many times there is not a single boss cow in a pasture, but it ends up in a round-robin situation where dominant cow(#1) runs another dominant cow (#2), then dominant cow (#2) runs another dominant cow (#3), but dominant cow (#3) runs the dominant cow(#1). I've also found that it depends on the year and situation. I move my cattle around into different groups a lot and one cow may run another when they are in the same pasture one year, but the pecking order is reversed the next year. George [/QUOTE]
