Can't figure this one out. On one farm that I rent I noticed that every week or so I'd see a cow show up at feeding time with mud on her face and body. She would look like she had fell down the pond dam or something. Usually only one cow at the time, but not the same cow every time. So I got curious and started trying to figure out why. And this is what I've got. When this particular pond was dug some of the excess clay was piled around the pond. Piles are about 12 feet high. These cows are going up to a couple of the piles and rubbing their heads, faces, bodies in the clay. Why?
