[QUOTE="fnfarms1, post: 1284709, member: 24416"] I recently bought 7 bred charolaisX heifers. They were a touch skiddish from being handled, loaded unloaded etc. All of them are gradually coming around and starting to eat with me near the feed bunk. I'm sure alot of you have larger herds and aren't concerned with these types, however mine is a small 30 cow herd that I like being able to use feed bucket to catch and move or pen them. Any suggestions on how to make the last one more interested in feed? She's more skiddish, tends to shake, stays out on pasture, head up, nervous. If she does come in to feed (without me there)may takes a bite or 2 and then walks off. I have had a halter on her and been tying her up an hour or so a day. She is better but still has little interest in feed. [/QUOTE]
