[QUOTE="CattleAnnie, post: 26362, member: 220"] Put a set of hobbles on her. She'll soon realise resistance is futile. The first time the calf sucks her with them on, it helps to have her in the chute. You might need to make her stand when the calf goes up to her in the pen as well, for a day or two. A warning, though: Give her lots of room when you let her out of the chute with the hobbles on. Some cows kick like the beejezus, some refuse to move forward. Just had to shorten the hobbles on a cow that I'm grafting an orphan onto, because the old bag could actually lope around the pen with them on. Good luck with your heifer. Take care. [/QUOTE]
