[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1585562, member: 18809"] To piggy back on what Jeanne was saying, we now wean using these: [url]https://quietwean.com/[/url] They go in easy, and you hardly hear a peep out of the cow or calf. We leave them in for a week, then pull the calves out of the field and put them in a different pasture (and remove the flap). We did this will all of our fall calves, and just weaned a few December born calves. It was the quietest weaning we have ever done since we started using them. Out of 15 weaned so far, only one calf has lost hers, and we just brought her in to put one back in her and it stayed the second time. There is NO stress, and the only way we could tell that they were working is that the cows would follow the calves around, looking at them like "would you just nurse me please?!?!?!". :lol: We will never wean without these again. Sleep is a valuable commodity around here.... [/QUOTE]
