I don't know much about halter breaking calves. But we are going to learn. I am determined to learn, because I want to turn our two half dairy heifers into family milk cows. These two heifers we raised from bottle calves last fall, they are part black angus and part gurnsey. I have named them Harriet and Angel. I am hoping to be be able to sell one of them and keep one of them, but they won't be ready to be milked until Spring 2013 or so. Even still we need to start working with them now, or they are going to get to hard to handle. They are very friendly and I am praying that they won't be stubborn and unruly. I can pet them when they eat, so I think we will probably start them by feeding them. I have been watching some youtube videos about halter breaking cattle, but surprisingly there isn't that much info out there. Whenever you look up halter breaking most things that come up is about horses.
