Recently we have had some confusion regarding the rules of open range in my area. It usedto be(and has always been) if you live in an open range area you can turn your cows out, just keep an eye on them and do the neighborly thing and go get them if they get in with someonelses cows. But now the county says if it is privately owned land it must be fenced to run cows on it :?: This was discovered after over 100 phone calls to local, state and county governments... :shock: the only problem is... this "law" is not in writing..... There are no open range laws in this state.....or if they exhist they are written on a post-it note stuck on the inside of some filing cabinet somewhere. These laws mean nothing if they cant show them on paper....so whats up? Can I turn my cows out or not(right now they are eating what little grass is in my lake pasture and it aint gonna last long)
I was just wondering...if any of you had a similar situation in your areas?
Thanks
