[QUOTE="2/B or not 2/B, post: 831378, member: 7233"] I'm gonna observe the thief calves and their dams more closely now. I don't mind her being so gentle but I have to know that her own calf will get all the milk it needs. There are plenty of other very protective cows in this herd who wouldn't hesitate to attack any coyote or dog in an instant. I agree that protective cattle are needed on open pasture. 40-4171, we have beautiful grass this year and we were blessed with above average rainfall two years in a row which has helped our pastures and oak trees start to recover. I know a lot of other people have it very hard right now and we're extremely lucky this year, especially with the price of hay rising. We've been in a drought though and all that will be bone dry in a month or two. This is a very high fire risk area in the summer and during the fall lightning storms. [/QUOTE]
