[QUOTE="bcox, post: 224722, member: 3650"] IMHO, it is a good a idea to pen them for a few days. I have tried this. I bought ten head of cattle that were preconditioned two years ago. I let them go in the open field to join 10 others that I had previoulsly purchased. I opened the trailer door and they ran straight for the other cattle. The problem began as they passed the ten previously purchased cattle and proceeded to plow through four strands of barbed wire with the greatest of ease. Of course, the ten previous purchased cattle followed right behind them. Then the runaways plowed through my neighbors barbed wire fence releaseing his horses. Then the runaways plowed through my other neighbors barbed wire fence which freed 50 head of cows and calves. I was not well liked. I did get them all back but one. Last we saw she was heading south April 2004. She could be in Florida by now Cracker. If anyone has seen here please pm me. [/QUOTE]
