[QUOTE="novatech, post: 605051, member: 5494"] They are probably just feeling their oats, so to speak, and want to play. Problem is they do not understand that you break easy as compared to another cow. Bulls are the same way. Bottle babies are more prone to this as their is a bond produced. They must be taught who is master, and the master must understand they are not pets. Every day I have to feed bulls growing out in a pen. I have to walk around them to the feed bunk. I can promise you that if they did not know I was boss they would stomp my A into the ground while I was on the way with the feed. They are all very docile but assumptions could get me hurt if I allowed them to get to close. They have been taught to wait until I poor the feed in the bunk. I learned this through experience. I made a poor assumption by turning my back to a very gentle bull as I poured the feed into the bunk. He put his head under my butt and sailed me through the air. I was between him and what he wanted. He will not do that again, and I will not allow him or any other bull, or cow,behind me again. [/QUOTE]
