Kelly, Get some of those metal/pipe panels and put them when you first bring them home. I have had some calves that would try to knock it down when I first put them in there. I put them in a pen of only 10 - 10 foot panels made in a circle for a few days when I first get them. Have hay and feed already in there for them. They come off the trailer straight in the pen. The pen is in a shaded area in the pasture they will be in so when they finally settle down I leave one section open and walk off. They find their way out and by then they have an idea that a bucket means FOOD so when I go out to feed them, they won't come up right then but after about a week on pasture they run over you trying to get to the feed bunk. I pasture them in 5 acre spots before moving to the bigger pasture by the same method (leaving gate open and going back in the house.) They eventually find their way over there and no stress on them by moving. Be careful with those calves. I've been run over before in a pen with them. Don't turn your back on them under any circumstance and never let a kid in the pen with them. Take care, mee
