worst i ever fed in was when i was just a big kid,northen blew in and we fed 10,000+ square bales +cut the fences we had around our loose hay stacks and they ate several tons of loose hay. I dont know how cold it really was,but we ran all the calves we could into barns to keep them from freezing ears and things off.and the women even had some real young ones in the house warming them up. luckily most of the cattle were near home,so we could bring them up by getting the old d2 running and breaking trail.wound up losing 56 head of cattle that had drifted off in front of the wind and had got back up in a draw and froze. and one horse that my dad was riding hunting cattle when it fell through the ice that had formed over a ditch. fell through and broke a leg,and dad shot it.he very nearly froze before he got home hisself. i dont even know how many cattle we fed that werent ours that were just drifting ,but we had some from places six miles away. after shooting all our cattle in the dust bowl days, and that winter ,dad and grandad never got so many again.it was just too much.you all can have all that cold weather,these days if it gets below 65 im hunting cover!LOL sold the last 100 cows this summer. first time since 35 weve not had any, but its time.
