Post by: matt_aggie04 on July 21, 2010, 08:42:23 am Pretty neat but the pens are impressive! I wonder why they mashed the end of all the pipe rather than cut saddles? Either way it is a nice set up.

Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on July 21, 2010, 08:48:05 am They look like they would weigh in around 150#'s each. ;D
If I'm buying them by the pound, that is my answer anyway. ;) Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: james.frankovich on July 21, 2010, 08:57:14 am Flankin' and workin' the calves got a little weird :laugh:

(http://i686.photobucket.com/albums/vv224/ColbyBrown1984/Cowboy%20Stuff/034.jpg) Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: matt_aggie04 on July 21, 2010, 09:18:28 am What did roany think of the buffs? I bed he didn't like that oil check with those pointy azz horns haha
Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: Colby T. Brown on July 21, 2010, 09:26:40 am He and I both tried to stay out of that situation... It got a little weird a few times though. Lets just say he learned how to run that day!! lol
Jay's colt wasn't quiet as fortunate!! He got a gash about 5 or 6 inch long in his hip.... Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: BarrNinja on July 21, 2010, 10:05:33 am You Sir are a better man than me to pull off penning anything much less buffs on a 2 year old colt. :o
The pictures are great James! Thanks for taking the time to post em. Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: james.frankovich on July 21, 2010, 10:22:35 am Hindsight brought some questions as to how much sense we had....especially after my horse breakin in two with a cow buff on his tail....and then the showstopping gash in his .... but I always heard if you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough...
Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: Circle C on July 21, 2010, 10:26:00 am Awesome pics.
I think this is my favorite buff picture I have ever seen. (http://www.ranches.org/images/JA/buffalo.jpg) Quote In 1998, the JA gave the state of Texas the last remaining wild herd of buffalo in Texas. While we miss the buffalo, this photo shows why we had to get rid of them. Just west of the pens, you can see an open gate. Yet, the buffalo are walking through the fence. Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: craig on July 21, 2010, 10:44:32 am someone droped a load of $ in those pens and chute..
my neighbor raises buffalo , i dont want anything to do with them.. Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: Silverton Boar Dogs on July 21, 2010, 10:46:14 am I have never had a horse hooked by a buffalo, but my vet tells me that buffalo have a weird type of bacteria on their horns and that a hole from a buffalo horn will get infected and there could be some problem getting it healed up. So let me know how that heals up.

He ,So let me know how that heals up. Wow, what a vote of confidence. Man, that sounds like bad news. Hope your horse pulls through just fine. Regards Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: catchrcall on July 21, 2010, 11:01:07 am I've always heard that you can drive a buffalo anywhere HE wants to go :D some pretty neat pictures there.

You are 100% right!!! We thought about putting some dogs on them, but we didnt have a problem getting them stopped. Getting them going was another story at times!!

Post by: Silverton Boar Dogs on July 21, 2010, 12:02:47 pm Glad he healed up OK, Dr. Brock told me of several horses (cutters) that had been hooked and died from a staph type infection.
Here is some video of a pair of Sturts Border Collies working a fresh buffalo. If you think of BC's as being soft "sheep dogs" this might change your mind. http://www.sturtzstockdogs.com/Tony%20on%20Bison%202-1.wmv Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: james.frankovich on July 21, 2010, 12:04:33 pm Antibiotics, water hose, cutheal, and lots of time was the successful equation...and like colby said...the scar makes for a pretty good story! Keep in mind this is my colt that has "MDM" freeze branded on his hip, which looks a heck of a lot like "MOM"....he needs a few cool scars! :laugh:
Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on July 21, 2010, 12:05:38 pm Good n crazy dogs.
Title: Re: Buffalo Pennin... Post by: james.frankovich on July 21, 2010, 12:07:54 pm That's an awesome video...we've talked to Steve Sturtz numerous times about Tony! I have a hard enough time findin a damn curdog with that much heart and grit, much less be lucky enough to have it in a BC....maybe someday..
