My place is 7 miles outside of Crockett off Hwy 19. Goat weeds are always a significant challenge in this area also. I've had the most success with weed killer early spring I believe we have been using a product called banvel.

Patiently waiting on our rain. Suppose to be good but we will see.

Congrats

Very good post, I've been looking into the benefit of using chicken litter recently sounds like I need to find some barns in my area.

Just an update the owner of the cows was a stand up guy and paid the asking price. Good to see there's more than one decent person left in Houston County.

I just bought this chute for 500 bucks, I'd hold out for awhile and you'll come across one.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Absolutely

My vet recommended ivomec plus injectable for liver flukes, worked very well. He also recommended I use cydectin pour on in the spring. That's what I did last year worked pretty good, I noticed the cows showed a greater change faster with the ivomec injectable though.

I'm in the business because my grandpa was and I would like to keep the land to pass on to other generations. The cows are just a way to keep the AG exemption, and give me something else outdoors to do. Definitely not in it expecting to make a single dime, as along as I break even or gain more...

I personally prefer the sale barn over a private sale.

I thought of this shortly after speaking with the guy, I think I'm going to get the Texas cattle raisers association agent involved just so he's aware of what's going on. In case someone sees the cow on this guys place and claims ownership it doesn't look like I SOLD him a stolen cow. Probably...

Thanks for all your input, I plan to present the gentleman with a bill for $400 and see what he wants to do. I will let you guys know how it turns out.

Never said I'm assuming anything this post was to get input on what to charge him. I'll cross the bridge of him not paying when I get there. Furthermore with hay $100+, and paying for water, mineral, and so on its very easy to get to $97 a month per cow. I know hay prices in Colorado are great...

Just running through some numbers off the top of my head it appears it's costing me $97 per month per cow including everything except water $97 a month for (4) months total would be $388. I have a 14 head operation without including his cow.

He's offered to cover her expenses so he seems like he wants to do the right thing, but that could all change when it comes time to pay. Cow looks bred don't know if she came that way or if my bull got ahold of her. This ole gal is a little on the wild side, she's careful not to get into the lot...

Looking for some advice on what you would think to be a fair price to charge this gentleman whose cow has been on my place since August. I'll give you a little background on the situation, there were (4) cows out back in July no brands, tags or anything to identify ownership. They we're eating...

Extremely glad for the rain we've been getting, my tanks still have a ways to go before I'm out of the woods.

Cows look excellent as well as the pasture, wish we had some greenery around these parts.

I'd have to agree with Isomade.
