[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1387267, member: 9096"] Farmer Jan, We started out with a herd that had hardly seen a human. wild b@stards.. So for a while, it was "chase the here and there".. Then I got a number of them calmed down and halter broke, there were still the freaks in the herd, but at least I could take one of them and lead the rest of herd with her.. Now, I halter break all my calves, at least enough they don't freak and will stand still, and I don't keep anything that doesn't want a petting.. it's taken 25 years to get here, but things are much easier now.. Should any cow need some treatment, most of the time it just means you take a halter and rope, tie them to a fence, and you can lift a hoof, etc. Since I'm pretty much a 1 man show it's especially important. I still have a couple crazy mommas, but for the most part now they bring the baby to me to show it off. [/QUOTE]
