[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 313792, member: 3162"] Not in Texas during the summer. They are fine in the winter and there are folks who shuttle cattle. I know nothing first hand about Florida and can only postulate it is the same. The heat can be really tough on cattle that are acclimated to it. Nights are tolerable for most all breeds. They'll do evening and morning foraging, which helps. You don't want them eating anything over 8 to 9% protein when heat is over 100 degrees. Many grasses are over that level of protein. Heck I drop weight myself in those conditions. [/QUOTE]
