[QUOTE="regolith, post: 699256, member: 9267"] Well maybe being from halfway across the world makes a difference but... I have to disagree. If you're seeing the swelling lopsided, high on the left side, that's mild bloat and indicates the need for precaution - whether that's grazing management, bloat blocks, frequent checking with knife at belt. I don't know about you guys, but I find dead cows before seeing any signs of distress. Maybe exacerbated by rotational grazing. I'm also sure it's worse with 12-hour shifts than 24-hour shifts.
