[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 638034, member: 4362"] She takes turns guarding with her sister. They both are excellent mamas but you really got to watch them. I've noticed that they have pretty wide flight zone in the pen and are really easy to work while penned. But on open ground its a different story as things are reversed from a flight zone to an attack zone. I quit messing with banding the young calves a few years ago when a neighbor who practiced this all his life got smushed by a "friendly" cow. He spent three weeks in the hospital and he is lucky someone found him. Since I do most of this type work by myself, I just don't think its worth the risk. I know everyone's situation is different but its still risky business if you go it alone. [/QUOTE]
