[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 953513, member: 3162"] A few years back thousands of cattle died in Nevada and other states from heat stess. It was discussed in this forum. We see temps above 110 degrees here just about every summer. It is not so much the high temp during the day that gets cows in trouble but rather when the over night lows are in the mid to upper 80 degree range and cows are trying to forage at night. Feed has impact on cattle in high temperatures, based on my experiences - including panting. That has been argued in this forum a few times but I only know what I have seen. When temps get extremely high my nurse cows go to an all grain 9 % dairy feed. [/QUOTE]
