[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1435271, member: 25884"] Okay, and in a few days does she calm down? We have a couple that are like that for the first week or so. Then they calm down. We will get a bunch in as soon as the calves are a couple weeks old, work them and then turn them back out. I can't always get them done with my knee/ankle issues so as long as I know the calf is alive and hopefully I see it up nursing, I let well enough alone. Then when it comes time to move them around, the "problems" go to a pasture where there is no bull and they go to town after they get the calf raised up. I agree that when they get to the point of more than one strike.... bad attitude, late in the calving season, big teats, did I say attitude, they need to go. But if you can get her in , in a couple of weeks to sell her, why not work the calf, then sell both at the end of the season when the calf has some size. [/QUOTE]
