This touches on an earlier topic but I'll ask it again anyway. I have increased my heard on one of my 160 acre farms and I have it cross fenced into a 40 acre pasture and a 120 acre pasture. I planned on running my young angus bull with my 10 heifers and 10 smaller framed cows on the smaller side and putting the new 4 year old angus bull I just bought on the bigger side with 29 cows. The point is they just about tore one of my fences down trying to get at one another. My two year old has had the place all to himself and was not happy when big boy unloaded. Would it be better to just put them all together and save my fences or just try and keep them seperated? I thought I was doing the right thing because my younger bull has the lower birth weights and secondly I didn't want them hurting each other or a calf .
