[QUOTE="Snider_Angus, post: 538940, member: 6521"] I dont like to brag but i will today. 1. Last summer i got my first show heifer. She is out of our herd of Commercial Angus cows (nothing fancy at all). I got a horse and rope and picked her out of the herd and loaded her in the trailer to bring home.. i put the halter on in the trailer at the pasture. I got her home opened the gate to let her out of the trailer(holding onto the rope) she jumped out and i walked her right to the fence to tie her up. In 45 min. i had her to where she would let you touch her all over and do just about anything around her head and ears.. We were walking in the front yard of my house the next day..... 2. I just bought a steer yesterday. Had only been haltered and tie 1 time. Tied him at the Vet Clinic for 30 min while i was paying for everything.. loaded him up and the vet tied him in for me and he rode 30 min. home tied up in the trailer. I got him home and took him straight to the tie rail and tied him next to the heifer from the first story. He went crazy a couple times but by the end of the night he was calm and would let you comb him.... I went out before school this morning at 5:30 and started working with him to lead and after 1 or 2 times of him trying to get away he started to respect the rope. and would follow me anywhere i pulled by 8:00 a.m. Anything is possible if you just stay persistant and you dont let them get away with things they aren't allowed and you will be fine. but YEARLINGS are a little more dangerous than a 660 lb. steer.
