[QUOTE="TxSimbrahShower, post: 391942, member: 621"] Well all of you that pull with tractors, don't let your neighbors or passerbys see it. You'll be getting a visit from the Humane Society. As far as our show cattle, we pay from $2000.00 to $5000.00 a piece for them and we're not going to run the risk of breaking a leg or crippling them. One rule, when you go to pick out a show animal, if it runs to the other end of the pasture away from humans, leave it in the pasture. We break with gentle and patience and 9 out of 10 of them are halter broke in 3 to 4 days after getting to our place. The other 1 usually takes 5 or 6 days. In 10 years breaking 10 to 15 head a year, we have only had one heifer that we didn't break, really we didn't try, my husband went and got her, she should have never been brought home, the ranch used the calves to train their horses. Big mistake, she would try to fight through the fence, she took a ride back to the ranch were she came from. But, everyone to their own ways. [/QUOTE]
