I am always watching the online sheriff livestock auctions. I have bought some good deals. Maybe you can buy them back since you know they are up to date on worming and shots.

Like stated above. I would make a call and document who you talked with and when, that way you've your part. Not sure how many cattle your talking about but most cattleman would be concerned if several head are missing.Originally posted by texan16 View Post
You may also want to check with Texas and Southwestern cattle raisers association. They will send a agent for your area they will be able to answer questions and point you in Correct directionLast edited by ReydonPete; 03-31-2017, 09:46 AM.Comment

If you want to be charged with cattle rustling, then go ahead. The law is the law.Comment

What if a stay cow gets hit on a FM road. Is the owner of the cow responsible for the damages to the vehicle?Comment

From what I understand the answer is no. Texas is a "open range" state and livestock owners are not liable.Originally posted by Mertzon Man View PostComment

I dont know about that. If it is true, it would be nice to know though. Because my wifes grandma has insurance on her cattle to protect her from just that. Now if the road is marked with cow crossing signs, sure they shouldnt be at fault.Originally posted by texan16 View Post

I like the advice some people give.
If it was true that you could keep them after so many days we would be cutting fences all around our 6k acres.
You are supposed to report that you have then as soon as possible it takes us about 3 days. Since you worked them and all sounds like you were able to secure them. The Sheriff would send someone to pick up.
They do not become the property of the Sheriff after the sale the money is placed in an estray account until such time as an owner is found.
