[QUOTE="Sylvanglades, post: 383883, member: 505"] Congratulations mountainboy on fullfilling your dream to have a farm! Like you, having a farm was our dream that finally came true about 4 years ago. I agree with T-Bro that if possible, it's a good idea to start with 2 bred heifers as this breed especially likes to have company. I say heifers as they are most affordable even though first time heifers require some watching. I noticed you had mentioned british whites but since noone has answered, I thought I'd let you know that there are American British White Park cattle Breeders in close proximity to your area. If you go to the association website, they have a list of breeders for each state.

Although, the females are medium stock, most of the bulls reach sizes that rival other larger breeds as can be seen from our first bull Payday's picture below.
