[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1528480, member: 968"] Interesting - house I live in is old. Used to be a school house that they moved onto an old stone foundation where the house had burned down. My cattle graze on about 75 acres of pasture + some woods. All pastures lead back to lot behind barn where their water supply is located. A few paddocks have a water supply in them (winter lot areas). So, just call them to the water lot and they come running, knowing we will give them new pasture - unless we tricked them to work them. LOL On the subject of working/sorting cattle, you might be interested to know how we sort cattle. Nephew & I grab a polywire reel. He holds the reel, I just weave in & out of cattle holding the other end, pick it up & go over top of some and sort out what we need & walk them out of paddocks into work facility. Young calves need to be kept with their dam because they just scoot under the "non-hot" polywire. Our calves are "taught" at birth to go under hot hi-tensile to get to their 3-side shed for winter protection. [/QUOTE]
