[QUOTE="milkloss, post: 8138945, member: 56"] Usually we'd get an awkward cow to put up with the calf (I.e. not try and kill it) and if it's strong enough we then mix the pair with some other calved cows that are flexible. You'll find a strong calf will get feed somehow even if not from the one you want. You'll then wish youd chopped her head off anyway. other option is to get some shackles on her so he can have a half feed and then top the calf up with powder so she doesn't get p1ssed off. I'm not sure having the calf penned away is helping but appreciate you might not have a choice. [/QUOTE]
