[QUOTE="Stepper, post: 196485, member: 3398"] Bill, Last summer i bought a few young heifer's that weighed about 400 lbs. Bought them at the sale barn. I had the vet work them before i loaded them. Well one of them wound up with a broken hind leg. It got broke somehow when it was run in the sqeeze shoot. When they opened the shoot gate the heifer stepped out and fell down. The vet thought at first it had pinched a nerve but learned different later. Lucky for me it happened there at the sale barn. Their insurance covered it and they gave me my money back on the heifer. A couple weeks later i bought some more heifer's and i ask if they put the heifer down and to my surprise they put in a holding lot and was feeding it out. They thought they could go ahead and feed it out and slauter it. But i know it had to be in allot of pain. I wish they had of went ahead and put it down. But it was not my call.
