    Zebu Heifer

    UPDATE! Sophia is Doing wonderfully! I still keep a halter and drag rope on her in case I need to grab her, but she is usually walking right up my rear anyway. She pokes me with her nose and licks my arms. She will eat out of my hand and generally assists me in whatever I am doing in the barn...

    Zebu Heifer

    I thought I would update on Sophia. I found a local Zebu breeder who came out and showed me how to handle and train Miss Sophia. She has advised on feeding and having a daily routine. We started tying her out in the field for brief periods of time under constant supervision on an 8 ft lead line...

    Zebu Heifer

    Yep she does the sullen thing already. We never leave her alone when tied and we alternately tie her high and low. We keep the drag rope on her all the time and she gets mad at herself when she steps on it. She reminds me of a bratty child not getting her way. She rubs the walls like a cat...

    LOL I doubt I have a handle on anything yet and she really has no choice but to tolerate us in the stall.If she ever gets out I will have to round up the nine to catch her again! Hopefully the halter will come today so I can get it on her this weekend with a lead rope to drag. I will keep you...

    UPDATE: After saying no several times to the heifer and deciding it was a bad idea all together to try taming her...I ended up getting her last Wednesday. It took NINE of us to corner her, my son lassoed her and after a good scuffle we loaded her into a trailer...upside down by her feet since...

    Zebu Heifer

    I thank you all. I have decided to pass. She was as wild as a deer. She is going to hurt anyone trying to catch and load her. The guy is keeping her since he cant catch her either. I think I am going to get a couple of milk goats instead. I have had goats in the past and know what to do with...

    Zebu Heifer

    What should the eye and tail be doing or not doing? The guy that has her is my sister in laws friend. He has bought rabbits from me in the past and I gave him a pair of Bourbon Red Turkeys a couple months back. I dont "know" him personally but he is a friend of the family. I was told that He...

    Zebu Heifer

    I have been offered a 16 month old Zebu Heifer for free. The catch is she is wild living with goats on dirt. I have 2 acres fenced of decent hay type grass that had horses years ago. I also have to catch/load/haul her myself. Ideas?? I am going to go visit her Sat but wanted to see what I need...
