[QUOTE="Bez, post: 72661, member: 412"] Go find 8 - 10 animals that are bred and have calves at side. Now you have about one - two years before you have to worry about a bull. I have written on this extensively for others - but it you are new: Find some 4 - 5 year old animals that are healthy, gentle and have no previous calving probs. You will have them soon enough anyway - everyone does sooner or later. Figure out if you have room for more, or if you are over stocked at this rate. Adjust accordingly. Do not do the "in all at once" routine. This ia a recipe for disaster. Get these animals, get used to them and THEN decide on your breeding program. When you bring home your first animals - put them in a SOLID pen with food and water for a few days - otherwise you may chase them over hill and dale. Have fun and enjoy your animals. Bez [/QUOTE]
