[QUOTE="ToddFarmsInc, post: 543786, member: 8301"] I hear a lot of people practice "double weaning". That's where you wean the calves once, and then when they get out and back with their mom's you wean them again. :roll: I started weaning my calves and then holding them in my corrall right by my house. The cows go back down to their winter lot, and I just put a little strand of electric wire across the road access road. The old cows sometimes hop over the fence and trot up to visit the calves the first night, or two. (or three or four) but after a while they figure out they can't get [b][i]in [/i][/b]with the calves, and they give up. Then after a couple weeks when the calves are all cried out, they go out to another pasture. [/QUOTE]
