[QUOTE="Rosielou, post: 1151485, member: 17488"] I always try to stress them as little as possible so they don't get any more nervous or lose more weight than necessary. We always haul the day before or the morning of the sale, which gives us little time but also I think benefits my profit out of the calf. If the calf doesn't go in the corral I don't stress about it because it just means more weight gain and almost always a better situation in the end. I don't leave a bull calf on a momma over 7 months, though. I have seen some guys at the sale barn will get a pen just for their calves or if the majority of their calves are in one pen they'll bring a sack of feed up for them. I don't see it alot though.
