[QUOTE="Victoria, post: 292089, member: 1258"] I agree with you. We do often have to get things done and have no help. At our place there is just my mother and I. During calving she takes night shift, I take day shift. We are out there alone. She's often asleep when I am doing the regular day and I don't have anyone to call as a rule. That said I [i]never [/i]work a wilder animal without either back up or someone knowing what I am doing and waitng for that call. Same with working with the bulls. Number two on my list not having an animal on the place with a bad temperment. I am not going to bring the whole to pat a cow or to not pat a cow debate over here (different things work for different people) but I think everyone has to put in a no second chance policy. If a cow acts ornery in any way, shape or form she should go, same with bulls. It doesn't matter what kind of calf she has it isn't worth risking your life. Not all but most of the serious cattle accidents that I have heard or read about involve an animal that has shown their true colours to some degree before the incident. [/QUOTE]
