[QUOTE="faster horses, post: 1708507, member: 17524"] At our place cattle have no reason to be wild. This was back in the 1960's and they were fed hay during winter and good pasture during summer. They were handled well, everyone that started calving at 3 years of age stopped doing it. Economics for one, them not liking their calves was another. I don't know how many acres your cattle have to run in, these were range cattle, handled at calving and fed hay during the winter. They had every opportunity to NOT be wild. "That was a fluke or environment or handling or lack of. Had nothing to do with age." Myself and many others say it did. We will have to agree to disagree. We went through it; we wanted them gentle and to top it off, they were Herefords. [/QUOTE]
