[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1666028, member: 9096"] If a cow is separated for a while and gets put back in, or transfered from one group to another (like she had a calf and she gets put with a new group of mommas), there's usually going to be some fighting. As long as they fight one at a time and don't all gang up, I've usually never had a problem, but I did have an older cow go lame when there was a gang-up and they hurt her hip. Some cows just have to fight over EVERYTHING (I found shorthorns bad for that) and they never settle it for good, they just always gotta start another fight... I ended up getting rid of all of them, it seems that now, they'll have a fight when you put them together and after that, it's settled. Some cows are also really submissive, they won't go and eat beside a dominant cow, etc... Others don't give a darn, they'll get pushed and shoved and just keep their nose in the feed bunk [/QUOTE]
