    A ways to green grass yet.

    Agree @Lazy M my hat is off to y’all in the north. We ran out of hay by the 20th of March. I usually feed hay through till first of April give or take a few days and they’ve typically slowed way down in hay by then.

    Best first cow to get to raise to breed for beef and gentle disposition. What is best age to get them? I would like to get 2 and raise 2 calves

    It's a long program to buy cows and raise calves to finish out for beef. Then you've got to either have a bull or AI breed the cows. @Warren Allison is right it might be better to start out with a couple steers. If you are real concerned about disposition of the animals then my preference is to...

    Good meat

    If it was me I would try to feed her on grain till then. Not enough time for my preference, but I've had to do in in that time frame once before. The processor recommended that I pull of off pasture so she wouldn't be eating wild onions this time of year.

    Reckon what cross she is?

    The funny thing is this cow was purchased through a Hereford influence sale that is supposed to be just for calves with 50% or more white face and only British breeding. In the group she was in there was an obvious braford too. I didn’t mind they both made great cows but they didn’t grade them...

    Reckon what cross she is?

    She has in the past been bred to registered black Angus bulls some AI and she typically has a black or very dark but a brownish tint. She has even had one black calf mottled face and white on udder and flank with sone red brindle from an Angus.

    Fancy eatin

    We have our own beef so we eat pretty good lots of times at home. We have laying hens so we eat a lot eggs. I try to raise a garden too. It’s so expensive to eat out we try not to do that much. Our town doesn’t really have a lot of options outside of fast food chains and Mexican restaurants. So...

    Fancy eatin

    That’s how we are, we rarely go out to eat much. We looked over the menu online and had the conversation before we went about what we were going to order. Wife seriously considered some kind of fettuccini (not sure how to spell that). Then she decided since it was a place known for its steaks...
