[QUOTE="Richnm, post: 1773414, member: 35932"] I have a 2 year old heifer calve today then it started charging and ramming her own 15 minute old new born heifer into the corral and against a tree. She wouldn’t let the calf suck. She pushed her own calf so hard the calf was half way under the panel. A couple hours before that I had another calf ( that was born today ) that I found injured and laying against the water trough. I now assume the same heifer attacked this new born calf also. I separated the injured calf and it’s dam. The calf can not stand on its back injured foot, I did not see this calf nurse. I took the calf from the heifer that was charging it and bottle fed it colostrum and separated it from its mom. How should I try to get the calf on it’s mom tomorrow? Is this a genetic trait ? The heifer that’s charging is aaa# 19848795 . Thanks [/QUOTE]
