[QUOTE="Susie David, post: 281789, member: 1744"] Unless estrus is starting and the reproduction responses take over, mounting is normal in cattle. Calves do it from the time they can get up on their hind legs, whether it is practice for grown-up behavior or some inbred motor response or to express dominance in establishing position in the pecking order or it could just feel good to the animal...alot of theories. The heat cycle is pretty easy to detect when watching cows, alot of good posts on the subject. Just my two bits worth....DMc [/QUOTE]
