[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 289418, member: 1863"] All of my cows are tame enough to touch and work on with the exception of two. They are not wild they just will not let you get closer than 10 feet. Even my bull doesn't care if I walk up and touch him. When he is laying down in the pasture I can walk up and sit on his back like a bench. He doesn't care he just keeps chewing his cud and dozing. Sometimes I use him for a seat when feeding the catfish. I prefer tame over non-tame any day. I work my cows slow anyway and they have been taught that the 3 foot long, bright orange fiberglass pole in my hands means that they need to move. I have no problems loading them or getting them thru the chute for shots / tags etc. It is better for calving to. I can work on the calf and have less fear of momma stomping me into the ground. On another note I watch every cow and bull like a hawk no matter how tame or un-tame whenever I am in the pasture. Doesn't make sense to let the ol' guard down. [/QUOTE]
