[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 647858, member: 539"] I think you're wrong on your assessment. I don't know what you consider to be a 'larger' herd, or large tracts of land, but we culled any animal that was outright dangerous very quickly. As far as the flightly, or high-headed ones were concerned - it was more a matter of how flighty/high-headed she was, under what circumstances that behaviour manifested, as well as what she had to contribute to the herd that was the deciding factor on whether she was culled or not. We had a few that had to be handled with kid gloves, but they were worth the extra time and trouble due to the calves that they produced, and their contribution to our program. Not all flighty/high headed cows produce flighty/high headed calves. [/QUOTE]
