[QUOTE="Gayle Hilgeman, post: 93449, member: 1406"] We don`t use the rings for weaning, we use them for heifers that still suck on the cows after they were suppose to be weaned. Like the next fall after they are bred and we bring them home and put with the cows again and they start sucking again. When we wean we put all the calves in a pen and let the cows rummage around the pen for 2 days and then chase them away. I thought the person with the sucking heifers were older ones. But I have put them in small pail calves after weaning because fo sucking on the other calves udders. My Dad always said that sucking on undeveloped udder makes blank teats. [/QUOTE]
