I am glad that worked out for you, rrlund; I've had to pull 2 twins before and it did not work out or she rejected one. I have been wanting to change my herd-I have black gelviegh/angus mix and for the last few years the calves seem more wild. I am more interested in very calm mannered cows and calves than anything else. They have been good mothers for the most part, but I've had issues too. One cow actually let me squirt milk into her newborn calf's mouth (born in the late snow); but I've had all the usual problems before too. I work 45 miles away and worry myself sick during calving time. I would welcome sugestions for a gentle breed that is calving ease! I want a breed / mix that the calves tend not to get goofy/wild after weaning and being fed all winter in the barn and the run of the barn lot. You would think that seeing me everyday would make them tame, but that's not been the case lately. Only the mommas seem tame and don't run when I walk thru them. Thanks for any comments or ideas.
