Ever tried getting an unwilling cow on a scale? Let me tell you, it’s not as easy as it sounds! I once had to use a bucket of feed and the promise of a pasture full of grass to coax one stubborn lady, and even then, she decided she’d rather give me a bath in dirt. Makes for a good laugh, but I swear, my back still aches.
, I feel you! Getting those stubborn ladies onto the scale can be a workout in itself. I’ve had some luck with using a soft rope and a little patience, but I still end up covered in dust half the time.
Getting that stubborn cow on the scale is a real test of patience, ain’t it? I once had to use a whole bucket of sweet feed just to get her to budge, but then she’d just plop down in the mud afterward! Have you tried using a different scale?
I’ve found that if you put that scale near a spot they usually hang out, you might have better luck. It’s like trying to coax a toddler into a bath — sometimes they just need a familiar place to feel safe! Ever thought of using their favorite grazing spot as a lure?
