[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9910"] I don't mean to sound like I am poo-pooing any of these problems. I guess, my real question should be... how much lead does it take to poison an animal as big as a yearling heifer? I know we are all working so hard to ensure that our animals are safe ... The other day, I moved some dirt into the receiving pen to fill in a low spot, hoping to avoid the lake that appears after hard rain.
