[QUOTE="Baustin, post: 1682964, member: 39842"] my opinion is worth about 2 cents. But here it is. if the calf had not been stepped on would you be culling momma? Not her fault for that loss, I’d say. You’re thinking penning her alone was the cause of misbehavior. Again, not her fault. i think “2 strikes you’re out” applies when the cow’s directly responsible somehow, like not being a timely calver, having to pull her calves, poor genetics, etc. sounds like a bad season for an otherwise good cow. Culling and replacing won’t bring back your loss. Might incur more. seems she’s worth another try unless you’d prefer a barn sale cow over her but sounds more risky to me. [/QUOTE]
