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.

They look like they would weigh in around 150#'s each.  If I'm buying them by the pound, that is my answer anyway.  |

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....

You Sir are a better man than me to pull off penning anything much less buffs on a 2 year old colt.  The pictures are great James! Thanks for taking the time to post em. |

Awesome pics. I think this is my favorite buff picture I have ever seen.  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. |

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.

Wow, what a vote of confidence. Man, that sounds like bad news. Hope your horse pulls through just fine. Regards |

I've always heard that you can drive a buffalo anywhere HE wants to go 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!! 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. 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 Jays colt healed fine. He took it straight to the vet, but there wasnt much the vet could do. He laid off from him for about 2 months, and now there is just a scar. It makes for a good story though!! |

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 |

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! |
