Warning please don't wear open toed shoes around your calves I was feeding for a friend whos calf is is a phyco. I had his halter on and he got spooked and ran straight towards  my dad who was talking to a frien and of course was wearing flip flops(not so smart on his part) I was screaming for him to move but he didnt hear and the steer bucked as his back leg came and landed on his foot. Which looks like it is now broke nice a colorful foot so please just be careful.

This is probably the worst thing, but all I usually where is sandals. My calves are pretty laid back so it has never given me trouble before.  ;D

If you are wearing flip-flops to work cattle you obviously have not been stepped on. Broke my foot in two places. Bruised for months.

Even steel toed boots won't save you every time.  My hubbie got his stepped on while we were loading for San Antonio and it broke 2 of them...even wearing the steek toed boots.  The difference is that without the boots, he would be minus 2 toes.  When those calves get bigger they can do more than break them or bruise them!
