Life in the Pens Sorting Savage Cattle!

  • Carrying over from the last video, we get finally get the calves to the sorting pens. Now it's a big cluster of sorting Braford steers, heifers, black baldies, and the ones that will be leaving. Having to make about 4 different splits made for a lot of sorting and restless cattle. I tried doing my best putting it all together, it got a little wild at times!

    Haven't you heard of a drafting race, one run through and the jobs done. It would take all year if you had to draught a couple of thousand head of properly wild cattle like they have to on Australian cattle stations. Why have all the feeders and troughs in the working yards, it's a good way to injure yourself or the cattle. Probably need a better set of yards.

    • @TheFarmGuy

    My siblings and I had some brahman calves when we were young. My steer would sail over the fence every time we were ready to send him to the sale, so he was three years old by the time we were able to send him off to the sale barn. I don't care for cattle that have wildness in their genes.
