I have a cow that just calved and she is accepting calf or at least is somewhat protective of calf when you get in the pen but she keeps head bunting calf when it gets up. She isn't banging him into the gates or anything but just keeps knocking him down. I have just let her be for now in hopes she calms down. I think she just gets worked up after calving and needs some time to settle down. What are others expiriences and what do you normally do? How long should I wait to get her in the chute and get the calf nursing if she doesn't calm down?
