[QUOTE="SmallTimin, post: 1738961, member: 41623"] I got started 5/6 years ago with bottle calves. Then got into miniature cattle, and in 2019 my paw in law had a tree fall on him and I started working his cattle while he was in the hospital. He preconditions cattle for a big local(ish) operator. After he got to where he could go back to doing his cattle without help, the operator asked if I would be interested in doing the same thing at my place. So I went for it. I went from running 50 head at a time to running between 250-350 head at a time. At one point last year I had 425 head on the ground. This year my dad and I decided to go together and start purchasing our own cattle, to hopefully supplement the income I’m getting from preconditioning. A lot more risk, but no risk, no reward I reckon. [/QUOTE]
