How many will trailer hold

[Angus Cowman]

Angus I found a pic of a bunch of those cattle...somebody might need to enlarge it for me. I figure we can get 30-32 of these on a 24 ft.

ya think we could get 80 of them on the 53ft pot

Heck yeah...on the bottom floor alone we could do that many. Put another 80 on top and a dozen in the doghouse.

Oh, ya'll, that's so sad. I can't tell you how bad it hurts my heart to see that.
Can cattle like that recover fully? I gotta think immature cattle would be permanantly stunted, but will older cows bounce back with adequate, proper nutrition?

Farmwriter, I can't remember where I found that pic but those cattle are not in the US. They look more like the typical cattle of some of the African Nomadic tribes. 100% grass fed....just not a lot of grass around.

[farmwriter]

I was afraid that was somebody's TX heard that was abandoned to the drought. They do look a little leggy and awkward compared to any I've ever seen, but just b/c I ain't seen em don't mean they ain't around.
Still pitiful looking.

recover from what...can you imagine what a angus would look like in that enviorment

[farmwriter]

Well, I was thinking recover from starvation. I'm sure most breeds would look deplorable under similar conditions. You don't think the health of those cattle would be compromised?

to a degree... but their heat, parisite and diesease resistants is outstanding,,, they can look like that and still thrive in thier enviroment.. but im sure they dont have a pressure of a calving season

I suspect there's some truth to that, but I hope I never have to find out.

you ever watch a brahman go to water,, they move toward it while grazing along the way,,, bos taurus will make a bee line toward it
