[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 2167"] most calf fatteners operate this way in europe, because of the sizes of the calf operations here. most of the mills own a few hundred thousand calves, and they just pay farmers to keep them, and they provide for medical and feeding costs. if an animal dies, a full autopsy is always done and an independent vet decides who's to blame. i've never heard of any bad experiences in this type of business, although the profit margin is rather small, you don't have the risks involved. sounds like a good deal, but make sure it's all written in contracts, and make sure you get either wages for tending the animals or that you get paid a certain, fair price/kg of calf delivered. good luck [email=gynantonyx@lycos.com]gynantonyx@lycos.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
