I was gone for the summer, and had a couple of my yearling heifers cross the fence and they've been hanging out at the neighbor's place. There's three over there right now, and Mom brought them back once, but they promptly went right back over the fence again. Now that I'm home, I'll deal with them (tomorrow morning's project), but I need some advice on what to do for my neighbor.
He had some cows running on that pasture too, and the grass was long; he said he didn't care if my heifers were out there too, since he knew my folks weren't savvy enough to deal with the escapees... but I can't imagine it was 100% a-okay with him. They've been hanging out at his barn, and I'm pretty sure he's graining his heifers up there. I strongly suspect he won't take money...
Thoughts? comments? suggestions? I want to make sure our neighborly relationship is good; what do I need to do?
