I have a heifer that gets super stressed when she's in the chute or when her stall buddy isn't right next to her. She's always looking behind her and walks sideways alot. She does the lil head wobble sometimes too.
I've bee looking into daily calming agents. The one that keeps popping up is Sullivan peace pellets. Has anyone had good results with them?
Also considering meletonin. What are your thoughts on the best solution other than working with her? She gets worked everyday and seems to like some people better than others.
She will be my nephews project. I'm not wanting to use it forever. My thoughts were to implement it for a couple months and continue to work her regularly until she breaks the bad habits. She isn't a bad heifer. She doesn't kick or try to drag ya around or anything like that just seems to have some trust issues and doesn't like commotion. My hopes are that the peace pellets will help take that little edge off and speed up the process of gaining trust with others.
Any thoughts optionsand experiences are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
