Not sure which forum to put this under but....I have a 4 year old "John" that has been with the cows since he was 6 months old. Thus far have had no "real" problems...this is my 3rd calving season, previous two the donkey left the calves alone. This year however he has been a royal pain. He is constantly trying to separate the calves from their mom, chasing them, stomping at them..almost treating them like dogs...This is creating a good deal of stress with the cows. For the time being I have put the donkey in another pasture. Has anyone experienced this before? Is it a problem? Should I not worry about it and let them sort it out? Thanks and cheers, Bill
