Cant move cattle with the family without a major domestic. Can you imagine a bunch of farmers who cant decide the best way in theory to put anything in practice!Judging by some of the replys/ battles going on in this this thread I would suggest there would be lots of arm waving/ shouting/ arguing/ and punch ups and fork all action resulting in a bunch of cattle no nearer to being got in a pen or loaded up!
sounds a lot more reasonable than some suggestionsI'm not sure whether it was mentioned before but if I was the OP I would out number the 25 wild cattle with a larger number of quiet cattle, maybe 30-40 bossy hungry sucklers whatever your handling yard will hold. Feed the whole lot for a couple of weeks to settle in together. If you have enough big cattle packed into your handling yard the wild ones won't have the freedom to charge and jump, they will be dispersed in the big group and carried along with the majority when being loaded. It will mean more hauling about but you'll get the buggers home

+1That domestic in this house usually starts the evening before we move the cattle, when I mention I might need one or two bodies for a couple of hours tomorrow.
Then it continues on for about three days after we move the said cattle, what with all the posts mortem and various other inquires as to who was to blame for each and every one of the multitude of fugg ups!!
By then it's time to move the cattle back again. You get my drift!!!!
Its fine if everyone just does exactly what I want without having to be told, the problem is I think dad and mum both think the same thing too, so we all do our own thing and shout at each otherThat domestic in this house usually starts the evening before we move the cattle, when I mention I might need one or two bodies for a couple of hours tomorrow.

Can't like this post enough.Its fine if everyone just does exactly what I want without having to be told, the problem is I think dad and mum both think the same thing too, so we all do our own thing and shout at each other
Seems to work ok on the whole, but could be a lot more relaxed...
Shouting at the old man probably.Can't like this post enough.
Can prepare for every event 'cept the old fella deciding to do his own thing, at that crucial moment when they are two minds whether to do as they should, or feck off into distance,tails in the air, thinking they'd rather spend winter in an exposed sh*tty field, rather than a warm dry building.
Doing anything next Tuesday? ??
Same here.I move my cattle on my own. I found out long ago that I don't respond to being shouted at any more than the cattle do, so I stopped!
Only if you can bring some new swear words to the party,Shouting at the old man probably.
Do you want me to come and help shout at yours?
