[QUOTE="Ozhorse, post: 1153581, member: 18575"] You have been very kind to offer to sort out your neighbours cattle problem. Does sound like a situation where you need to be careful of the "no good deed goes unpunished" factor. I interpret this to mean, not that you dont do favours, but that expect to pay for it big time. If something went wrong with the procedure and you lost an animal? Or it needed vetinary attention? What would your neighbour be likely to do? think? would it affect neighbourly relations? Would it all then be YOUR fault? Or worse, if something went wrong and your husband got injured ? Is it worth it to make it your problem? At the moment it is your neighbours problem and if the steers/bulls could make good money in the yards right now your neighbour could have some money, you could have more grass and less risk. Paying a vet to do the proceedure would probably not be covered by the increase in value of the animals. Y/N? I had a year old bull I wanted castrated. I was not game to ask someone else to do it for me because I thought Murphys law would kick in and chances are they might get hurt. [/QUOTE]
