Unless they have cancer rust, a little rust is good as it allows the dye & wax to penetrate better.

Trouble is, that the cattle have been moved back into this pasture.

The calves and cows will likely find it and stopmp all over it before a coyote comes back. If I reset on that spot.
I have other spots.

How appropriate !
I have it in 2 new holes, now.
(It also had Lesel Reusaat's cat gland)
