[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1549942, member: 27490"] With all the rain we have had, animal husbandry has reached an all time disgrace in my area and I am sure you are seeing the same thing. I see cattle standing in mud a foot deep. The cattle are skinny, the calves are dying and the trees are black with vultures. I see one place on US 62 between Mt. Olivet and Maysville where the cattle are skin and bones, standing over pitiful little calves between their legs in nothing but mud. Vultures are having a picnic on the dying calves. The owner does not reside there and the cows are fed on an infrequent basis. The hay looks like crap. The pasture is over stocked. Nothing to eat. The calves get out and I see them often in a neighbor's yard eating on their lawn. I have considered reporting them to the sherriff. The level of neglect is appalling. Kentucky has some outstanding producers, known nation wide, but on the whole, Kentucky is not as progressive as some other states. I have spent enough time in Missouri to recognize that their cattle industry is more progressive even their feed stores are more progressive. I sometimes buy stuff out there that I do not find here. I am on the cattle board for Robertson county. We have some conscientious cattle producers. One of our goals is to promote better animal husbandry. It is sometimes a discouraging endeavor. [/QUOTE]
