    You think those Florida cattle would be half broke by the time we’d get them to Pecos but we where wrong. They’d come off that trailer and try to take out the first gate they’d come too or jump it , and then there’d be a few so sick you dang nere have to drag. Don’t really miss those days. Would much rather haul ranch stock! But that was years ago.

    I've heard nothing but horror stories about Florida cattle from old hands.
    Never had the privilege or misfortune of walking any on.

    When you roll up to the pen and they’re run’n with their head up and tail high, you better have a big stick you push’em on.
    Pigs raised on dirt vs. pigs raised on concrete, is another thing that’s not really a THING anymore but.....
    Pigs raised on dirt and concrete will generally load and cooperate but I’ve seen them that’s only seen concrete can be a s.o.b. to load.
