[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 660943, member: 539"] I would give her a little 'nudge', so to speak, and pen her with her calf. We had a cow that would steal the calf of any cow that happened to calve within the time frame of her own calving, and she would abandon her own calf. Unfortunately, she raised hellishin' good calves and never passed this particular trait on to them, so we just penned her when she got close to calving. That solved the problem. Sounds like you might have the same kind of deal with this heifer. [/QUOTE]
