I am as green as it comes to raising cattle. I have a friend in Alabama that has a grain mill. Where should I start?
You'll need a cow-cow here and a cow-cow there, here a cow there a cow everywhere a cow-cow. Or if you want to do it right you'll need land, forages, fences and facilities. Wait to buy the 3500 dually until later.I am as green as it comes to raising cattle. I have a friend in Alabama that has a grain mill. Where should I start?
Damn! its all about the 3500 Dually lol You have cow-cow for sale?You'll need a cow-cow here and a cow-cow there, here a cow there a cow everywhere a cow-cow. Or if you want to do it right you'll need land, forages, fences and facilities. Wait to buy the 3500 dually until later.
sage advice. thanksGet a job working on a cattle ranch first and see how you like it before you try on your own. Can learn a lot on the job.
Thanks for the welcome.Friend in Alabama and live in Washington. Where to start.... hmm
Omaha Nebraska
That's my guess as to the halfway point between Alabama and Washington.
Welcome to CF
What? Eb, That's NOT how it's done and you know it. You buy the 40' aluminum GN 1st, then the 3500 dually to pull it with, then the cow cows and THEN the land to put'em on. (Somewhere in between all that a pair of $400 Justins and a $300 long oval cowboy hat an a 1/2 dozen pair of Wrangler pro rodeo cowboy cut jeans and a nice leather belt with a big shiny belt buckle..)Wait to buy the 3500 dually until later.
Welcome, JT. What is it exactly that you want to start doing? Cow/calf? Feeders? Milking? How much land do you own? Is it fenced? Any buildings on it? Corrals, cross-fencing, head gate. chute and working pens? Regardless of which way you go, one of the first things you need to do is ask around the local sale barn, co-op, county extension agent...for recomendations on a good person to either sprig .....or drill hulled seeds...to establish a good stand of KUDZU.I am as green as it comes to raising cattle.
