Terrible day to be working cattle in the heat

[Worksalot]

We’re all exhausted. Cattle were as stressed out as can be. One guy got knocked down and trampled by a heifer. He may have a broken finger. Did all that hard work for nothing. Had the trailers all ready to haul cattle to sale barn. And then at the end of the morning, boss says no to selling any.

tough day for sure. I hate working cattle in the this heat. Cattle get agitated and salty and the cowboys get angry and impatient and those two things never work well together.

Often results in a cowboy or cattle getting hurt. Hate all the effort was for nothing.

Especially black cattle... we used to work angus cattle and the temperament changed much quicker than the rest! Don’t miss those days!

Tough day for sure! We’d always be on horseback right at sun up because of the heat. Cattle were easy to pen so it didn’t take but a few hours to get done. What was the reason boss man decided not to sell??

Yup, used to have to work cattle... No Sir, do not miss that one bit!! I grew to have a hatred for cattle that is probably sinful, but probably one reason I like ribeyes so much... I know a cow has to die for me to have one... I eat 'em regular as I can!

We started before sunrise. Had so many head to move today that it took most of the morning. Still not done, but we’ll start again tomorrow. Might be at it the rest of the week.

Boss decided to wait until steers gain more weight. That’s the reason I was given. Last time, they kept holding off and the price kept dropping. Didn’t work out well. Makes it really tough on us since the boss won’t hire extra hands. We’re spread too thin on several thousand acres.

I cut four steers off last night and hauled the to the barn. Had to bring the whole herd up to do it. Fed them in the pens then let the rest out when they wanted to go. Took 3x as long but the cattle stayed calm. Was still hot as crap. I need to preg check some heifers but I really don't want to put them through it right now.

Not much fun building this deck either

Yea I have never understood pennin cattle during this time of the year unless it’s absolutely necessary. Cows/dogs/horses/hands get too hot and Ive seen dogs and cows die from it when it was senseless and could’ve been done in the fall
