Cows on my property

[Bravo1413]

Ok. Looking for some advise. I have someone else’s cows jumping and breaking my fences on my property and grazing. I chase them off and they just come back. I have been fixing the fence line for the last 1 and 1/2 years and am tired of it. Can’t find an owner. They graze on the west side of my property, but keep coming through the fence and breaking it down. No house on the property, just some vertical tanks of some sort. Don’t know who the cows belong to. About to put some beef in the freezer.

The sheriff can find the landowner, if it's not the landowner's cattle he'll know who he's given or leased grazing rights to. Are they cow/calf pairs or what are they? Are they branded? The sheriff can help there also.

Do you know the address. You can look it up on the county assessor's site and find the owner of record.

So can the county assessor. Will the sheriff consider them free range? Are you a fence in or fence out county? Call the sheriff on the business line not the emergency line and be polite. Ask.

how tall is the fence? What material? Once cows are jumpers and they have a learned behavior it is hard to break. Neighbors bull cleared our five foot fence.

Cattle owners are responsible for damages if they arent keeping the livestock fenced well. Sounds like they need to work on their fences. Call the Sheriffs dept and report Cattle loose on a public road. That will fix it!

Before you go to all that trouble maybe tell us where they are. I’m sure somebody can help ‘remove’ the pesky fence busters up and alleviate your problem.
