Hey, I was thinking Could you put a soft non-working yoke on a pair of Billy Goats to train? Maybe a puny load of leafy branches to the ones not loose I only fence for birth control I have fine big healthy Alpine and LaMancha goats Love your videos You've sold me and saved a couple of bullocks I have coming after a wee new barn extension Thank you for the time you take filming and advising I'm your biggest fan, I can see how you and your team care for each other You have happy bullocks

I suppose you could try to train goats but they don't tend to be as attentive as cattle and want to play all the time. Never tried it but I suppose it's worth a shot.

They are looking good! I just got my first pair of calves about 6 weeks ago. I've got a few different goads at the farm that I can use, but I'm not sure which type work better. Is there a reason that you use a goad with a lash compared to one without?

It’s my personal preference. I feel it gives me more flexibility and reach. Plus, just the sound and visual cues from the lash allow for more precise driving.

How do you train them to pull even? My off steer is a fast stepper and my neigh steer is pokey.

I have the same problem with my sons calves. The off steer is far more dominant. It's hard to explain in a comment so maybe I'll put together a video on it but essentially it's concentrating on the faster animal and keeping a lash in front of his face all the time to adjust his speed. Working them on a pole instead of a chain for a while can help greatly too because it keeps the animals tied together better with less of an opportunity for turning and back-chaining.

Are these boys different sizes? or different ages? We have a half jersey Holstein and a jersey...wonder if they could be a pair

They are close in age but the near one was sick when he was a calf so he grew slower than the off one. It’s hard to match them for size if they aren’t the same breed or close in age. You can try it but they may grow apart in size.

What if you give them a little treat if they do the right thing, and pet them and say “atta boy”? They won’t like that?

Positive reinforcement with letting and praising works well. Treats don’t because then they’re constantly bugging you for a treat and get distracted.

I saw people at a fair today doing this way too excessively. They were hitting the cows in the face over and over again. It was sick and twisted to watch. The cows were very clearly being abused and treated poorly. Why do people think this is fun?

We don’t operate like that. You can’t get cattle to behave like the ones in this video by abusing them. It goes against their nature. Not sure what you saw or what fair it was at but there is no abuse in our circles.
