[QUOTE="Double R Ranch, post: 1063966, member: 411"] We've used crown weaning rings with great success and not a problem. We've had cows weaned from there calves for two months start lactating again for there calves. Turn the calves out thinking all would be fine as moms were dry and calves were living on there own well. Check a while later and moms are full bagged and the cycle starts over. No longer have that problem. If we have to put them back sooner than we'd like we put weaning rings in. Problem solved. Otherwise they stay separated for 5-6 months usually. We've even purchased show cattle that have been of breeding age, turn them out with the herd and find them nursing. Weaning rind in for a few months, moms kick the cow, weaning complete. [/QUOTE]
