Yes, we are starting a herd. The calves are bull and heifer...

Have not been able to get in touch with vet as of yet because of the Christmas holiday. And the trailer my husband is referring to using is the "enclosed" type. My concerns were much the same as the other posters mentioned. But my husband argues that going down the highway the calves will get plenty of air even in an enclosed trailer. And the "fumes" from the truck will not get in?
Also, He thinks he will have No trouble cleaning the trailer after the trip. I question that ability also.

The reason why I posted here Pete is because there is always someone around that knows how to find useful info. And many that know about things you wouldn't think an Internet Marketer would. Internet Marketers, Affiliates, all types of online marketers....you never know what they know "behind the screen".

> Such a question is right up on a par of those that ask.. "Do I need a

Just looking for opinions or the possibilty that someone knows where to find the info. Like I posted at the beginning..Tried several different search strings myself and came up empty handed..I'm simply looking for something I can print to show my husband that we don't need to go that route. Across the board...I'm sure there is something in fine print that states it is illegal. Regardless of where you live or plan to transport the animals to or from.

When doing a search in google. I kept finding irrelevant stuff. Like a long page of legal action suits. One may be about livestock and another about U-haul. Unrelated...Just need one traffic case or agricultural case stating legalities to convince husband we need another form of transportation.

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)

        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!"
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
