[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1414219, member: 20599"] :heart: sweet. We have only been at it (cow wrangling) for 5 years and admittedly there is sometimes a cross word (and usually I'm the culprit :hide: How long til harmony will ensue? :lol: Although it's not marital, one of the occasional problems is that when we have young guys come to help, (1) sometimes they have a lot of nervous energy and stir the herd up more than is necessary; and (2) even though I spend far more time with the herd and know their likely reactions better (and which ones need to get gathered; and which calf goes with which dam, etc), one or two of the young guys can sometimes tend to not want to take direction from a woman. One of them (the worst offender) I have banished, after he chased the cows to try to herd them, after being told by me not to do so several times. [/QUOTE]
