    Temperament- Cattle

    A tame herd is a must if you have to spend more time working with cattle. At the moment all cows let me to pet them, scratch many places, some let you to touch everywhere you want, some have their favorite spots and those spots, which you better not touch or they'll walk away.

    Culling cow heard

    Bad character (applies to the calves too) Repeatable hard calvings ( usually give a second chance for heifers, from three recent heifers which lost their 1st calves, one lost her 2nd calf and was culled, while other two are calving without problems) Not good enough calves, lack of meat or growth...

    We feed our cattle just hay, water and flour to our young bulls and heifers in the winter. Summer we feed grass, water and some apples and flour to offspring. :)
