Amen, Cowman, few people other than cattle owners know that. I was at the farm one day and a calf got out, my son in law who lives there asked if I wanted him and his company to come out and help get the calf in. I just smiled and said they should just stay in the house and carry on. I walked around the calf slowly, talked to it and moved it along the fence, past the gate, opened the gate , then walked around in front of him and moved him slowly to the gate, when he saw the opening he was in , in a wink. If you run after cattle they will run too and a lot faster than you can. Give cattle time and they will move where you want them. As far as Jack's question, I'm 58, raised with cattle and have had cattle the last ten years and I learn more about cattle every day I own them. Vet bills can eat a calf up in a hurry, got one now that I got $130 in drugs in it and its still not healthy..that'd be about my profit margin on that calf...Mike in Exeter Ontario
