[QUOTE="jfont, post: 23137, member: 140"] Comming back to the cow being protective of the calf. Be careful. One of my cows is normaly calm, but gets that way when she calves. When she doesn't let me get close enough I'll put out some feed in the pen and try to put a gate between her and the calf, do a quick check and let them back together before she gets too stressed. If this isn't practical with your set up, you and a buddie could drive out in the pasture when the calf is laying away from the cow, put the truck between them, hop out and do a quick check while your buddie keeps an eye on the closing cow. The truck will give you a place to get away from the cow if need be. This only works if the new born calf hasn't built up enough strenth to run away from you. [/QUOTE]
