[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1715005, member: 39695"] I've got one old cow, she is my favorite lead cow. She leads when we walk the cows home, leads when I call them, leads when she heard the feed tractor. But man is she a pain in the butt when I wean. She is never ready to give up her calf. Two years ago I weaned the calves and hauled the cows back to pasture. The next morning she had gone through a fence, walked a quarter mile home and was bawling in the barnyard. Last year I fence line weaned them. She didn't jump out, but she would stand parallel to a pipe gate so her calf could stick it's head through and nurse. This year she has a pretty nice heifer calf. I'm going to put a weaned flap in the calf's nose and leave them together. We'll see if that keeps the old gal happy. [/QUOTE]
