Rocks. That's how I rotate my pastures. When you can't see rocks it's ready to graze, when you can see it's time to move em. :cboy:greybeard":39szdu23 said:fenceman":39szdu23 said:
Are those rocks--or just dirt clods?
:lol2: you could pick em every day for ten years and next year they'll be back. My great grandfather grew cotton on that ground. There's piles of rocks all over my place from picking up rocks. They just come back. Ain't all bad it's limestone. I've never bought a tablespoon of lime. :cboy:ddd75":11njediw said:i'd be buying/renting a rock machine to pick them all up.. i wouldn't be able to stand that.
Whatever ram. That rocky PASTURE won't carry many cows. That's for sure. It's got several underground caverns, one goes about 300 yards underground.about a dozen Indian mounds and numerous artifacts. It's fenced and grazes cattle so in Texas it's a pasture..It's mine and I'm proud of it. Any body that don't like it can go climb a pine tree. :tiphat:ram":2307e254 said:Fenceman, the definition of the word pasture varies greatly I guess. Rocks and cactus is stretching it. IMO

Been lots of southwestern cattle raised on mesquite leaves and burned nopales--never seen a one eat pine needles. I watched my uncles burn pears out in Nolan County when I was a kid, so their cows could eat.
