[QUOTE="Lee VanRoss, post: 1751555, member: 40072"] Interesting, We have done the watermelon deal for years. We use the cows for a garbage disposal. Of course there are things they won't touch. There is a mud bottom pond at the lower end which drains continually. I try to keep them out of it otherwise I can run into foot problems. Water source is a year around spring coming from under the road at the upper end. Spring took the road out in 16? The county laid in a 100 or so loads of busted concrete and steel barrier. It has held so far but I'm betting on the spring in the long haul. Helps not to have black hided cattle in hot weather. I forget the temperature difference between black and the others. I do know I do not have cattle clustered in the creek all summer since going to red or spots. Without water, heat and low humidity can be hard on them as well. Hint , after a rain is a good time to check for hardware in the feed yard./ Lee [/QUOTE]
