[QUOTE="Tim/South, post: 1207262, member: 17986"] I have kept stray cows here for a while until the owner realized they were missing. I had one strange thing happen a few years ago. We had sold all our cattle, got out for a couple of years. A neighbor told me our electric fence was down and our cows were close to the road. I went to look and there was a small herd of cows, calves and a bull in that pasture. It was winter and they were healthy living on the stockpiled fescue and clover. A cattle trader leases a pasture down the creek but had sold everything that fall, never took any through the winter. I called the land owner and asked if they were about 20 head short when they sold that fall. He said the trader said the numbers came out exact. A few hours later the trader called and asked how many head were there. I said About 20 and a bull. He said that was exactly how many he was missing. :D They brought some panels and fed them up, hauled them to the sale. [/QUOTE]
