The herding of cattle from Texas to railroad centers to the north was called a cattle drive. Cattle drives took many months to complete. Some of the cowboys would drive the cattle to Kansas and not want to go back to the ranch after being paid. Then ranchers would have to hire more hands the next cattle drive season.
The railroads meant the rancher had a shorter journey to cattle markets. Instead of a cattle drive having to go a long distance, taking many days, the cattle were driven to the nearest railhead or cattle yard and loaded onto cattle trucks.
An average of 14 to 18 miles per day were made on cattle drives.

Depends on the vehicle
The Texas cattle industry had its origins from the Spanish culture in raising cattle and ranching. However, some practices of cattle ranching may have come from African cultures since many of the men who were involved in ranching and acting as cattle hands in many ranches in and around Texas were of African-American origin or descent.
Depending on how many cattle are being inseminated at one time......from one to ten around $35.00 each.......From ten to under fifty the cost drops considerably to $27.00 each and over a hundred @ $14.50 each

Females (heifers and cows) have four teats: one for each quarter of the udder.
Depends on how far you want to drive!
