I'm new to the cattle business, although have been around them for awhile. We have purchased 125 acres, remote from our house, a worn out old corral is about the only thing on it, but pretty good pasture. Have not had coyote problems…yet. But we are seeing them, and shooting them when we can. Concerned about new born calves, especially since we aren't there to regularly check on them.
I've read here that donkeys don't mix with cows, in fact one post here, had an injured calve cause by the donkey. But…I've also read some want them to keep predators out. And for sure I have concerns about coyotes.
So what's the consensus on this?
