They got a door open and probably didn't eat more than a five gallon pail full each,and they'd been on grain all along in a group feeder with a limited amount in it twice a day. There wasn't a thing in the world that the vet could do for them.
A guy out east of town lost a nice feeder steer that way too. His father in law warned him not to do it,but he knew better. "People do it all the time".

That alone would have been funny if the result hadn't been what it was.
