[QUOTE="tnwalkingred, post: 1097102, member: 14434"] All, How far is too far to have cattle away from your home? How often do you check on your cattle? I personally check on the cattle at my house everyday but I'm thinking about buying or leasing another farm and it obviously will not be at the house. I know everyone is going to have a different opinion of this but I thought I'd ask anyways. I always assumed that if the cattle had plenty of forage, fresh water, and a good fence surrounding them that checking on them once a week would be sufficient. I wouldn't want to have heifers calving far from home but in reality I rarely see them calve even when they are at the house. My heifers normally have calves while I'm asleep. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks. Kyle [/QUOTE]
