[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 878918, member: 6897"] Our area is full of post oaks and live oaks and some cows also eat soem of them. but CB they do not always kill every cow that eats them but if they eat enough of them long enough there is always the chance one or "some" will die. That's just a fact. Yours may not affected NOW, but I've seen many dry up and die standing under a tree waiting for the next one to fall. If they eat enough for enough days you "could" lose one. Mu original comment was to the vet who claimed the acorns basically just fill a cow up and kill her because she cannot digest or pass them. Are you familar with the blood thinner medication "Coumadin". Great product and hundreds of thousands of people take it. You know what the active ingredient is?? Warfarin.....increase the concentration of the warfarin and change the carrier and you know what you have??? BAR BAIT rat poison....sort of like eating a few acorns or a bushel. [/QUOTE]
