[QUOTE="syork, post: 627150, member: 8371"] You hit the nail on the nose. I have been raising bottle babies since I was 10 years old. I have always when I was young with dads permission put the calves in with the herd. When I got older I never had no problems with anyone attacking anyone. I had a bottle fed bull calf one time he was a angus brahma cross and I swear he was bully. He was about 600 pounds he was still pretty young i know he wasnt a yearlin yet. One time I called cows to feed and the crazy thing was pushing shoving snorting causing all sorts of ruckus. I had to laugh. He wasnt letting noone run over him. I never had a problem out of my holsteins I raised either. This one that died was very different from my other bottle babies. He didnt want to be in the herd. He just went off by himself. I guess cause when he first came here there were only two heifers on the place. I have anthor farm I put all the main cows on. He never did want to be with the cows. He was kind of a loner. They left him alone. It was more like you stay on your side of the fence I stay on mine. I didnt have to worry bout them. Then the other day I was out feeding and they wouldnt come to hay. I looked for them and there they was all of them had their head down and just ramming him. I never in my all born days seen anything like it. They had him in a corner and was just intent on doing away with him. [/QUOTE]
