[QUOTE="50/50Farms, post: 1794730, member: 42731"] I don't raise longhorns but I've been looking into something to stick on a place here that I can leave alone for most of the month, and I've been leaning towards something with some Spanish blood. It's got about 70 acres in fence right now (still need to fence the N end to expand upon that) but I'm only at that place sporadically unless it's a hunting season and need something that can hustle and survive and calve without my assistance pretty much every time, and I'm in the process of rehabing part of the land (I was living elsewhere and the people who said they'd continue the work on it basically just screwed off after a rough deer season or two). Considering though that I have an additional center fenced chamber that we typically do up in crops for wildlife and that my uncle keeps trade horses in sometimes, and that I can get a lot of winter sustainment feed cheap or free in my current situation, I've been thinking that if I keep those inputs low and use a good bull I can buy my way to what I want to breed down there a lot faster.
