[QUOTE="Matt Schiel, post: 354088, member: 81"] I had a similair problem with my first show heifer. Did not like women at all. My mom could not go into the same lot as her. This steer seems to have the same problem and their is nothing that you can easily do to fix. I would "start over" again but in different way. Morning time: feed, water and tie up low all day with the fans on and brush, stick and play with the steer, no walking. Afternoon: get dad or guy to rinse her and then tie him back up with his head up for about 2 -3 hours. Brush, stick and play with steer and then feed him. Do this for at least a week or two without walking him. Let him know that you are not the bad guy and let him trust you again. As he gets into a routine I would keep the morning routine and in the afternoon start walking him in a small pen. When he learns to move with you in a small area, then move into a bigger pen and work yourself up to walking him everywere. Keep tying him up for at least two hours a day during your work, but walking would be my first concern than keeping the head up for two hours. Matt [/QUOTE]
