[QUOTE="marksmu, post: 616423, member: 9219"] Thats my problem....my uncle keeps no books - he isnt trying to make money. All he wants is the open space exemption he gets from the cattle on his property taxes, and he just likes looking at cows in his pasture. If a heifer doesnt calve he doesnt get rid of her, though he will slaughter her before one that does. He doesnt separate the bull ever and he mixes all his expenses on his place with everything else he does. He has no calving season, and no rhyme or reason. Also he is only there 1 day out of the month, and I go to my place now, several times a week, and at least the whole weekend, though my place is not more than 45 minutes from my front door... He also is more in central TX, and does not have near the same grass that I do. My 11 pastures are broken up with different grasses too...I have 2 pastures improved bahia, 2 in coastal bermuda, and then 2 in millet, with the remaining in just a mix of what was native...a bit of bermuda, a bit of bluestem, some san augustine, and some weeds. I know this wont be "easy" but is there something huge an obvious I am missing? [/QUOTE]
