[QUOTE="snake67, post: 1069509, member: 17764"] No matter how long you wean you will have some come back and try - depending upon the cow some will be successful at sucking again. We never put them back until the moms have new calves at side and the calf now turned heifer is bred and carrying its own calf. Lots of advice on blabs, wires and so on to keep them from sucking - but if they are a problem the only true solution is to get rid of them - too much time and trouble - unless you are prepared to take the time - and we defintely are not - if the animal is not push button we do not want it on the place. Like the old retails saying - 80% of your problems come from 20% of the customers - this can be applied to any cow herd as well Just the way we do it Cheers Bez [/QUOTE]
