[QUOTE="tcolvin, post: 1831850, member: 42820"] Makes sense. I fed cotton seed this evening and I made sure my bull went into the corral to eat. He stopped outside the corral to eat with some more cows that were eating but I came thru and walked him on into corral. I have two pens that are cattle panels and I put about 6 cows to three different pens which the corral is part of, hence this keeps them familiar with the chute area. I always send the bull to the corral. He was no problem, he stopped off in the first pen and I talked him to the second pen them to the corral where he ate with 5 other cows. He is not wild or aggressive, it's just he doesn't like being in close areas and yo be made go in the chute. I wonder what he would do if when I put him in the crowding pen with the 5 or five other cows and just let some cows go in chute and just leave him be, would eventually just walk into the chute entrance.? I don't think I'll use the hotshot on him any more. What you and others have said makes sense. [/QUOTE]
