To Chic Silber

The first year the mothers and calves were gillied from the train to the building in this transport wagon.
At seasons end they were weaned, the mothers sent home, then trained to lie down and sit up, mostly to establish some sort of law and order, after which they marched with the rest of the herd and presented in the performance by surrogate mothers.

Hard on the mothers to have the young separated.

Thanks for the plug Chic. I remember '94 well, and how effortlessly and quickly Buckles trained the two punks. A true master at work.
