[QUOTE="Gale Seddon, post: 353430, member: 53"] We've had a couple of calves that seem determined to sneak under the fence and curl up in the woods for a nap...mom is usually standing right at the spot where the calf sneaked out. A couple of our pastaures are along a road, so I try to keep a close watch. This happened three times with one calf within 24 hours of birth, and it's no fun tromping through the woods at night with a flashlight looking for a black calf. So, I found the little devil, picked her up, opened the gate and took mom and baby to the "ain't OK corral" for a few days. That fixed that! I don't think newborn babies can see the wire. And I'm usually thankful when I see them get popped on the nose once or twice. [/QUOTE]
