[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 168330, member: 968"] For your "wild" heifers, try putting out a little grain, and keep moving the feed closer to the barn/lot each time you feed. If they get to where they are coming into the lot to feed, you should be able to lock them up for short periods of time while you are working around the area/lot to get them calmed down. If they don't calm down, sorry, but unless you have the ability to "free range" raise their calves, you're in trouble. The wilder the cattle, the better your facilites must be. You have got to be able to CATCH cattle. Now, on your cow. Don't know how long it's been since calving, but she sounds like she really needs getting caught up & checked. Will she follow you with a bucket of grain? [/QUOTE]
