When.Inwas a kid, we tied the calf to the truck.trailer hitch and I rode in back and instructed walk or stop. But now I just carry a pocket full of grain, after being tied.to a.post.for.a little while. When they step.forward, they get a.goodie. My 2.bottle calves caught on very quickly.

I would like to hear what Jeanie's method is? She says in the 15 minute that she does things differently than him. I would like to hear what she does as i've heard his method or a version of it and do it in some sort or fashion. Thanks for insight.

You could always put the rope halter on the steer/heifer and let them drag it around. When they step on it, it brings their heads back, so they know to stop.

I'm using a dairy cow for 4H next year so I'm gonna have to halter break it...this will be interesting ....

@karatebrokenarrow 11 жыл бұрын

I have two questions. How long of a lead do you allow them to drag? second question my calves are bottle calves so there is no flight response towards us, so will the process be different, and can you start the process earlier, or do you still reccomend 4-5 months? Thanks in advance for the help?

I am 14 and i just got my 4th show calf but my dad and I have never been able to find a good way for me and him to halter break my calves without it being dangerous for me. I weigh 93 pounds and I am only 4'10. If there are any tips you or stradegy you can give me will be very well appreciated. It is just me and my dad doing it and my dad has a heart condition to where he cant do a lot of physical labor so please reply with anything you might have. Thank you :)

There can be a difference in the meats of different breeds.... Highland meat has been confirmed to have the highest level of "good fat' and the lowest level of "bad" fat of any cattle breed. It is very lean by nature, and as the woman said, they mature slower than other breeds.

how to train a calf

Is there a danger to leaving a halter on long term (getting caught in fence wire, skin irritation, etc.)

@torideanae 8 жыл бұрын

you probably have found out from another source by now, but yes it can begin to dig into their skin and cause wounds if it is left on for a long period of time. but a day or two should be alright then take it off and let your calf's skin rest

We a mental Basadaise steer who gets bald patches but that’s about it, it’s a rope halter.
