[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 1179183, member: 637"] I don't think it is logic to a cow, it is just their law of nature. If I thought my cows were doing some things out of logic, I would be be all over them with a butt whipping. :lol2: Just as law of nature for deer and goats to be browsers. Goats are more susceptible to worms. Even after the piles are long gone, and so is the urine, those spots still remain taller unless the animals are starving to death. Here is an article telling of the worms that goats will pick up on short forages if anyone is interested in reading it. I don't think they are thinking, "I can't eat short grass because of the worms." It is their law of living and surviving.
