[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1849781, member: 498"] A couple of my cows ended up on the neighbor's place. I won't go into that long story how they ended up there. But these two witches are a bit spooky. They were there for about 10 days until the cowboys had time to go get them. A black cow and a red brokle faced cow. The red cow had a calf while there. Three cowboys on horseback. My job is to guard the gate so the neighbor's cows don't get out. From my position I can't see a lot of the happenings. Apparently these two witches went through several fences and across the river at least 2 times. After a while here comes one to the cowboys with the calf in tow. They were hoping that the cow would follow the calf. No such luck. The calf got tied down and left. About this point the black cow jumped the fence on to my place. They left her be for a while. The red cow went and stood in the river. With the snow melt the river up high and running. Water is nearly up to her tail head. One cowboy loped up and came back with the truck and trailer. They roped the cow and used the truck to pull her out of the river. Using a rope on the cow. A horse pulling and backing the trailer up they got the witch into the trailer. Stopped and picked up the calf. While doing this the cow is pounding on the center divider. She isn't very happy. Now to find the black cow. I go on my quad to the right. Two cowboys on horses go up into the junipers and sagebrush to the left. I find nothing and start back. I see the cowboys starting my way. About then the cow runs by down slope from me headed the way we want her to go. There is a gentle old cow who came off the hill and through the open gate while all this was happening. She sees up coming and heads back through the gate. The wild black cow follows her. Hooray victory #1. The trailer gets backed to the gate. Door opened to let red cow and calf out. The cowboy who opened the trailer is behind the gate. He has hold of his horses reins but it is not behind the gate. The red cow hits the horse hard enough to lift it off the ground. Maneuvering the field gate they manage to get the horse loaded into the trailer without letting this mad cow out. The cow isn't headed up the hill. She is standing there pawing the ground want to fight. We pull away a good 200 feet to load all the horses and discuss things. She just stands there staring at us for a good 4 or 5 minutes. She finally takes her calf and heads up the hill. The cowboys are all smiling so it must have been fun. [/QUOTE]
