[QUOTE="2/B or not 2/B, post: 593545, member: 7233"] We tag and band right after the calf is born too. If the mama brings the calf in by the barn when she comes to drink, we herd it into the barn and shut the door. Usually she leaves the calf out in the field though, so sometimes we walk out when she's not looking. Other times, we drive out and handle the calf in the back of the truck. I've noticed that if you put the calf in the back of the truck and drive off a little, the mama keeps looking for the calf on the ground where she left it. I've never been charged by one of our cows, but they're dangerous and unpredictable by nature so why take any chances? [/QUOTE]
