[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1682714, member: 24816"] I don’t know anything about the signs except I never do hit right. They usually bawl for 2-3 days pretty much solid, then are usually getting quieter by the 3rd day. Then sometimes for a few more days they will occasionally bawl. As for city type neighbors, welcome to the club. I hope that you have some good folks coming to live around there. Some folks are nice and understanding and others can be turds about everything. I've had people across the road say something to a workhand when he was spreading manure. Others have complained about our tractors getting mud on the roads in winter. The neighbors that gave us the most grief, also had a visiting relative that I believe shot one of our calves. The woman said something a while after that that led me to think that. Said that he was visiting another relative and shot an animal on an adjoining farm from the porch. The place where the calf was shot was direct in line from there porch was also. A cousin has a farm next to subdivision, and he doesn't live on the property. He has had issues with neighbors and fences. Once a kid from one of the houses came over and shot the windows out of a truck and and shot up things in his barn. I believe that at one point some kids were coming over messing with his horses. One of his neighbors would climb the fence and spray Roundup for quite a distance in his pasture that joined their yard. That neighbor eventually built a wall in place of the fence. One thing of particular concern is keep a watch and make sure neighbors don't throw brush over in your pastures after they trim shrubs and trees. Some varieties of shrubs are highly toxic to livestock and sometimes city folks think they can throw things over the fence. Dogs can be a problem too, if the neighbors let them run free. [/QUOTE]
