Agree your land your rules and he should abide, period.
That said, and giving the other fellow the benefit of the doubt, unloading cows can absolutely create a hardship if not planned or if the market goes bad. Sound like you've given him notice several times but i would still do my best to work with him in a timely manner. Ranchers can get over extended real quick when market shifts. I know a few that were wanting to sell some late last year but are having to wait until market came up some so they didn't lose their ***, especially if they borrowed from the bank.
That might not be the case at all here, just keeping an open mind. Known several good ranchers get in a tight spot from time to time due to market shifts. Going forward, i would go per head or set a max number. Hope it all works out
