[QUOTE="LonghornRanch, post: 251849, member: 3077"] I understand your post 100% But here in Texas, the drought has me moving cattle all over the place. (lease land) I don't have any "facilities" at most places, unless I bring in panels and make one. I am greatful to have the pasture! I just moved cattle off one place that's "used" up. I rounded up all the calves and cows but...... ONE. I could not catch this little $8&*%^$%!!! To bring in the heavy cattle panles and build a correl and traps, would take two days of moving and set up,loading and break down and removel. It would cost me more to do this than the calf is worth. This is what I do...... call your Vet and drug the calf with a sedative in some sweet feed. Move the calf and be done with it. It's cost effective. If you still can't move her, refund the peoples money and shoot her and make hamburger. You can't spend alot of money on problem animals. [/QUOTE]
