Looks good , i'm not used to seeing green just snow and mud
You have weather cattle. One of the signs that the weather is going to change is that they will bed down on the side of a hill away from which way the storm is coming.

Looks like some of my cows. I like 'em. Mine also predict weather. They go into the woods when rain's imminent.

Hey Caustic,I think i can almost see a little hump.Nice variety of cattle.Glad to see some cattle that aren't all red or black.Is that a black one in the back right?Not the whiteface but the one to the left of it.Good cows and a nice looking bull.have a nice day.
AND you have sunshine ?
But what about rattlesnakes?
Do you ( or anyone else ) have any problems/mortality because of snake bites ? How many cows do you lose per year because of them.
I have wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Thanks.

Sounds great, would love to see them. Our first registered cow, Cherokeeruby, had almost pure Cherokee Ranch breeding. Have never been able to duplicate her but still trying.

We have had cows and calves get bitten by Copperheads, usually the leg, it swells up and gets stiff, but none have ever died from snakebite. The swelling goes down after a week or two.
Last month we did lose a gander to snakebite.

I agree, most bites in the leg area, not a lot of problems. I do remember back when I was a kid my Dad losing one older calf ( ~400 lbs ) that he suspected to be a snake bite in the neck area. We found it down next to a marshy area where we always saw water moccasins, a large swelling in the fleshy part of the dew lap.

In the early 60s along the mex border we would lose a calf or two every spring from snake bites in the neck area. We assumed it was from the cold nights and the snakes getting close to the calves for warmth on those sruprise cold nights. We lost more to illegals sneaking across the border at night though. Several a month from that.

I had two cows come up with snake bites on their faces last summer-both were under their left eyes. They were really swollen-looked like a person with a black eye except there was no discoloration, only swelling. Both were swollen for about two weeks. Both cows were bred-about half way through. Both went on to have healthy calves-I never did any kind of treatment for them. We have a hill side that is quite rocky and has a good bit of scrub brush on it, it's very steep and is hard to get over with the tractor. This seems to be their favorite place to graze and that's where I'm assuming that they got bitten.
