I agree with the other posts, when you get her on a trailer take her to the sale or have her butchered if that's your pleasure. I would make sure she has just one trailer ride,
Cows go into a pen because of feed, salt, or water. They also go in if the pen is a traffic way between pastures. The last load of cows I got out of one pasture went this way: one heifer jumped the corral fence. I added corral panels, old gates and whatever to get that section of the corralfence 6 1/2 feet tall or higher. I parked the trailer at the end of the chute so they would get use to it(unhooked truck and blocked trailer up, no way was I going to leave my truck in a remote pasture, didn't like leaving homemade trailer) The chute is curved so the cows won't see the end. There is a cutting gate half way down which I left open so they would get in the habit of going down the chute. I tried several times to get the heifer in the pen, closing the cutting gate which directed the cows down the chute where the trailer was. Finally got all the cows(4 head) in the pen, ran to the gate, the tamer ones were already on the way down the chute and the wild one followed them on to the trailer. That was their first and last trailer trip.
