[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 773184, member: 7509"] George, Here is a picture of about the two lowest backfat cattle I have from January 18th, 2009. The temperature the night before had reached about -30 deg F and was about -15 deg F when I took the picture. T-21 was still a yearling at that time. [img]http://i877.photobucket.com/albums/ab336/SRBeef/IMG_3839_T21_66_minus15degF_011809.jpg[/img] They had been grazing corn as well as hay at the time (but no more corn for retained females or bull). They both got through these temperatures with no problem. They have no other shelter other than the woods. They are in their winter coats. This is one of the things I like about Herefords. They can do this with minimal fuss. And with minimal backfat. [/QUOTE]
