[QUOTE="Farmhand, post: 71016, member: 1292"] Thought I'd ask for everyones opinion on this. There's a feedlot close by that bothers me. The owner doesn't seem to take care of his cattle real well. He gets out to feed them whenever it occurs to him. There is no wind break or shelter - there is a barn he could open up but he says cattle are too hard on buildings. He has one dinky mound that a couple head could get on. All the others wallow around in mud up to their bellies. It is possible to improve the drainage but he doesn't have the ambition to go do it. He rarely walks through his cattle to see if there is sickness or lameness or anything. No shade for the summer. Weather here is cold winters, wet springs, and hot summers. I see this lot everyday so I can't even try to forget about what these animals go through. Question is - is there anything that can be done? Am I just over reacting? Is it just none of my business? Would appreciate any thoughts on this. [/QUOTE]
