I just had a thought: If someone is color blind are they more likely to mix up their gas and diesel than the average person? Kinda makes you think.
The cans actually say gasoline or diesel on them. Guess they would have to be blind too:p

I think a "color blind" person could still tell those apart. I am not, but I know several who are and have talked to them about this. (Not the gas/diesel thing, but colors in general). If the cans were red/green or blue/purple that might be a problem, but I think they could tell the diff b/w red and yellow.



Great one! However, this method doesn't always work. I tried to get a 1,200 lb bull with 5 foot wide horns through a 3 foot wide gate last night, we ran through a couple sets of batteries in two hot shots over the course of almost 3 hours. :eek: The dang thing wouldn't budge. Weirdest thing I've ever seen. However, in theory, a little electricity goes a long way.
220 maybe:p

I just look at the jugs when they've been out in the sun, the gas one bulges out widely vs the diesel one.
For sure:p

next time that happens.. just apply the hotshot to the uh ...tender swinging part of the bull... he'll move... just don't turn your back on him in the pasture after that for a while.. he may hold a grudge..

That would be the,ummm, udder of the bull then?

A friend of mine has some Texas Longhorn x Watusi cattle in addition to his dairy herd. One steer has horns that are 17 1/2" in circumference at the base with a spread around 6 1/2 feet. This particular animal has picked up a 900 lb round bale on his horns and played with it like a ball when it was just dropped in the pasture instead of being put in the bale feeder.

Down in Texas we call them testicles...among other things. :D

Cows have udders. And we don't turn our back on the cows with horns either. They know they have them and know they'll get them closer to the pile of range cubes if used properly.

I can sure vouch for horned cows using their horns!..My longhorn cow has no qualms about pushing her way around with her horns...

On a side note it's interesting to see the horses work their way into the pile. A cow, horns or not will give way to a pushy horse every time around here.

I think it is a height issue.

I have a mix of animals.. quarter horses, minature's.. cows.. etc.

The large horses .. i think by virtue of height will push te cows around. the small horses.. i have seen the cows prod with their horns.. i've also seen a cow kicked squarely in the head from a mini horse after prodding said horse.. ;)
