[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 860918, member: 5381"] Walk with them real late in the evening, just before dark. Something about the low light conditions or maybe just the end of the day that seems to calm them down some what. I go out and just sit on the ground around them and let them come up and smell you. They will start to trust you and it makes them easier to work next time they go through the pens. Some of my best cows are somewhat flighty but I just leave them be. They even calm down after a while once they see the others getting up close to you. [/QUOTE]
