Moved the cattle onto some new ground today, big piece, 20 acre and there is a stream running right down the bottom of it. I’m concerned that they just aren't drinking enough. I’ve had a water trough and been filling it with an IBC to supplement them but they seem to be drinking less From the trough. Will they be taking more from the stream? Normally not an issue because there is a gigantic pond in the middle of the field that’s always full, all cows look milky enough just watching urine and udders and I’m not 100%. Am I reading to much into it? The stream is constantly flowing, and a good amount of water in there. Do I leave them to it and let them drink from the stream or keep topping up the trough?
This is the same natural feed that feeds all my ground higher up
