[QUOTE="W.B., post: 1579223, member: 3518"] You are going to get a wide variety of answers on this. I personally have worked cattle all my life and have observed different temperaments and genetics is the number one separator. Yes how we handle them makes a big difference but making excuses for the ones that don’t fit our management style only prolongs the problem. The cattle with wider flight zones remain the cattle with the wider flight zones their entire lives and generally speaking they predispose the rest of the herd to this behavior when they are handled. We don’t lead our cows, we don’t chase our cows we rather herd them. If they don’t fit the management here they leave. I have found life is a whole lot easier when cattle meet our standards rather than me trying to meet theirs. [/QUOTE]
