[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1579236, member: 9096"] Genetics definitely plays a role in it, but management of course too.. Some people just seem to love a good rodeo so they'll never have calm cattle. Spending time with them regularly is the most important, just walking through the herd while they're chewing cud.. for the calves, the first day, even the first couple hours is going to set the tone for them.. If momma is warning them all the time and you were always there, they'll think "Momma's bluffing, this guy is just fine".. if you weren't there, they'll listen to momma and you'll have an uphill battle getting them calmed back down [/QUOTE]
