[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1174691, member: 9096"] Well, I got another one for y'all... And once again, it's Mega... So I weaned Lazyboy from her yesterday, and put her in the pasture.. She's not happy about this at all, and of course spent the night bawling.. Lazyboy on the other hand, was too lazy to complain, he had good hay and seemed pretty unfazed by this. As you know, I milk Mega on occasion.. After calving, and after weaning for a little while, so this morning I go out with my pail and milk, she wandered a little but behaved pretty well all things considered. After milking, she gets a good bellyrub, neckrub, etc, and I jump the electric fence (about 32" high) and get about 10 feet, and here she comes, she jumps it too, clears it perfectly and doesn't get a leg hung up or anything (And you all know her build too right? Looks like she swallowed a barrel, but it's sideways in her) and she calmly follows me. I knew exactly where she wanted to go, so with the milk bucket in my left hand, I put a couple fingers behind her collar and off we go, she tagged along perfectly around the long way, and didn't even think of taking off when we were going the 'right way', so I just led her right into the corral.. she just followed like a saint, I was quite impressed. She's still 2 fences away from her calf, but a little closer now. I got enough milk to make 2L of yogurt, and I'll milk again tonight. She doesn't quite let her milk down for me. [/QUOTE]
