[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 1418681, member: 839"] I was told, today, by a new neighbor (new housing development in the "neighborhood") that it is cruel and mean for me to "sit on a calf" to tag and band it, and it is cruel to put a tag in their ear. I was also informed that using a head-gate is inhumane, and "restraining" cows is wrong. :roll: I calmly tried to inform them that the calf deal wasn't much different from their dog being held down/restrained for vaccines and exams. Also tried to explain the head-gate. As for the ear tags, I asked them about THEIR OWN pierced ears, and made the comparison. :roll: [/QUOTE]
