[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1574889, member: 37967"] Why is it BS? People on here make fun of Ron and myself when it comes to babying cattle, but then in the same breath you value docility. Having docile cattle takes generations to develop. If they are constantly treated badly it transfers over and over again. Like a vicious circle. Calves see the sh.tty handling and thus begins the process of a new generation of spooked cattle. I think what you view as BS is more like I challenge so many long held traditions in how I manage and handle my herd, it’s unorthodox to many old timers, but the proof is in the pudding when you see what I’m producing. Nobody has EVER come back to me and said “your animals are wild, I can’t deal with them” [/QUOTE]
