Noone can tell you how many head to run on 15 acres, because it depends on where you are located and what condition the grass is. Some areas, 15 acres would take care of 1 head, some, 15 head. You should consider purchasing some weaned calves. Be sure to deworm them and give them the normal preventative vaccinations needed for your area. Check with your local vet and extension office.
