[QUOTE="TexasRancher, post: 1779479, member: 8359"] That's not cool....a bull's encroachment is serious business. I've trained my bull and cows to wait on the other side of the feeder troughs. They know key words "Stay", "No!", "Come-on". The cows are still worse than my bull now. Few years ago i had a few issues with my bull encroaching me while i was ready to feed them. When that happened...they did not get fed outside...they got feed in the dark barn's feeders-safer for me. Years ago, that bull chased me down, around my truck, with a bag in hand...needless to stay all the cows were watching too as I laid down sharp angles around my truck. I then put the bag in the truck and left for home (not feeding the cattle)....I was vocal yelling at the cattle (something i never do). Boy...you could hear those cows balling when i was on the road leaving. After that one incident, all the cows must have really been angry with Mr. Bull cause he never chased me down for food again...no rewards given here. The key training factor is always go to your bull first and feed him wherever his location is at the feeder. (Respect) This way...he knows he gets at the food first...first bite....that you'll come to him first. [/QUOTE]
