[QUOTE="cchardwick, post: 1108077, member: 20972"] Very nice! I'm still learning about training calves to make them friendly but not pushy. I started with my first two calves, I bottle raised both and petted / touched my Holstein way too much, she got so pushy I had to get rid of her. I could hardly stay in the pen with her to do my chores. I'm trying not to touch my Jersey very much and when I do she starts to get pushy. The other day I had to spray her with a hose to calm her down, that seemed to do the trick for awhile, but tonight she was getting a little pushy again. It's a fine balance to get them friendly but not pushy, especially since I'm in the arena with my cows when I feed the other animals. At one point I had to separate the arena in half when I had my Holstein, but I've since taken down the divider. [/QUOTE]
