[QUOTE="pdubdo, post: 1516153, member: 24024"] I'm sure there are tons of factors here, but I talk to lots of people who check their cows daily. On the other extreme, I've talked with some (mostly open range or tons of acreage people) who turn their cows out for "seasons" at a time without a thought. I'm experimenting/gambling with my 4 cows--I live an hour away, check on them 1-2 times a week, have a guy who can help if there is trouble, no nearby livestock or dangerous roads, and all fences are new-ish. But I rely on a game camera that sends pictures to my phone. It's placed at the only water (300 ga concrete tank). As long as I see 4 cows coming to a full tank of water twice a day, I feel like that might be, "good enough". Let the opinions and critiquing begin!! :) [/QUOTE]
