Hey there,
Pretty new here on CT. I have made a couple of posts and have gotten some great advice.
Short history...Back in April I purchased 10 bred heifers. After reading several posts about heifers I may have not done that and gone a different route. Anyway all were due Dec1 - Feb1 and as planned all have had their calves. Didn't have to pull a single one and only had one that dropped her calf and kept walking. (Our only icy and snowy day here in Central Tx). After a trip to the vet to get the calf back on its feet she has become a great momma. Where the crazy one comes is I have one that you can't get within 30 ft of her calf or she stares you down and sometimes comes after you. My issue is that she is a really great momma and I hate to ship her out because of an attitude. To me the bottom line is will she produce a calf and will she take good care of it. These are brangus cows by the way and she seems to have a little more ear than some of the others. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks
