[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1031838, member: 18945"] In all my days, I've never had to run a fan on a cow. You created an environment in which the temp exceeded the highest ambient temp ever recorded in your state. Better off out in the blazing sun, even if it's a Texas sun. They are good looking animals for sure--we call 'em Oreo cows tho I don't see many. No--they aren't small. I wonder what the effect is on a Beltie--having black fore and aft with a big white swath in the middle as far as it's ability to handle heat? The white part reflects heat and the black parts absorb it--gotta be rough on it's metabolism. [/QUOTE]
