Now that's a great idea. Why didn't I think of that? Do you think it would work by using a strip of 1 1/2" electric fence tape for the calves to sneak under? My cows and bull respect a single strand of portable fence, since I use it in the rotational grazing pastures. But the calves are used to sneaking under the single strand to find a quiet place to bed down away from ma (luckily they outgrow this the next summer after they get zapped on the nose enough times.) Like he said in the video, doesn't take much more than a look to intimidate the calves into moving away from you, so there isn't a need for pressure on the cows to get them worked up. I usually separate the calves by moving the whole group into a small paddock, then let the cows back out one at a time by tempting them with hay. Learned my lesson on trying to move a calf by itself, like trying to grab a greased pig.
