Several options are available, you can choose to do one or all or none at all:
- Separate the bull from the nursing cow and leave the bull separated from the cow for several weeks. Make sure the fence is strong and sturdy enough that the bull can't go through, over, under or even stick his head through the fence to nurse from the cow.
- Sell the bull, since he's a milk thief and milk thieves--those cattle that are beyond weaning stage and still suckling--shouldn't even be in the herd.
- Put an Eeze-Wean nose ring on the bull to encourage the cow to kick him off every time he tries to suckle. Keep the ring on the bull for about a week or more. Hopefully by the time you remove the nose ring he'll not be suckling anymore. If he's still suckling, revert to Option #1. If even after then he gets back to bad habits, then I highly recommend you go for option #2.

Can a brahman bull mount a tiny jersey cow?
Not without injuring her. However, it depends on the size of the bull and cow in question. If the bull is just a yearling on a mature cow, yes you may. If the bull is a big mature guy, it wouldn't be recommended that he goes anywhere near her, no matter if she's a mature cow or a young heifer, by any producer with a lick of common sense. If she is a young heifer, no to either mature bull nor the yearling. Brahman bulls are not small by any means, and he will injure that cow if he's allowed to mate with her; if he doesn't injure her during the process of conception, the injuries will show up when she's close to calving: i.e., you will get a downer cow with spinal or hip problems. It's best if you get semen from him and artificially inseminate the cow instead, or if you can find a Brahman bull with low birth weight EPDs that you can get semen from, use that bull on her instead.
