An Angus breeder that helped me get started years ago called yesterday afternoon needing some help. The mother of his herd bull did not take AI and was in standing heat and he wanted to turn her in with my bull. I said sure bring her on over. I was thinking that he would just put her in the pasture and come back after her in a week or so.
He showed up about an hour later and an hour before dark. Now this breeder halter breaks all his calves, he runs about 20 mommas, so all his cattle are halter broken. When he got to my place, he unloaded the cow in a halter, led her into the catch pin, and tied her. With all the excitement it only took a few minutes before the bull was snooping around. I opened the gate and let him in. We watched for about 15 minutes as the bull did his thing a few times. Then we loaded the cow and she went home.
