[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1469922, member: 25884"] Use the weaning flap that has the spikes on it. She will get kicked so hard she will quit. Leave the weaning flap in her nose...don't care if it makes it sore....and then ship her when you can convince yourself to do so. Have a dairy that had 4 or 5 first calf heifers come into the barn fresh. 2 had 2 good teats the others were only 3 good teats. Then saw another fresh heifer sucking on a cow. Come to find out she was in that same group of heifers when they were weaned and turned out and bred and everything. That b%$#^ was sucking the other heifers before they were even bred, and subsequently ruined the udders of a half dozen potentially good dairy cows. And the owner put a flap in her nose, she quit, until it came out and started right back. Put another one in. I point blank told him in my very "diplomatic way" that he was the biggest idiot I've ever met ( in other more descriptive words) to keep her there. And he deserved to continue to have problems with the other cows as well as lost production etc. I won't tolerate it for a second.... no matter if she is the biggest pet on the place. [/QUOTE]
