[QUOTE="J-CCCC, post: 163994, member: 1540"] Dun & Bruno have it right. I raise cattle from town but have a support group I find hard to believe. There are four people in my area who each pass my place once or twice a day. I am notified when mine stray or when I have acquired stays. In calving season I've had a new calf pulled from the shallow part of my pond. If I'm not around to put out hay, I'm not suprised to find it out when I come in. Back when we had normal rainfall I sank the front wheels of my tractor in one of those two foot wide trenches we all have hidden in the bottom land. Before I could ask for help I had it. Problem is payback in my case. I go out of my way to help with the same attitude but there just aren't enough opportunities. I've built a fence with the neighbor and didn't ask him to share the cost and loaned a trailer to another and offered help with some roofing (darn they had it done by the time I showed up). I'm also watchful for their stock. Returned a horse once and helped return a cow. Farm people are the greatest. Jay [/QUOTE]
