[QUOTE="kenny thomas, post: 924308, member: 8993"] I only own 80 acres and lease whatever else I need. Grazing land is readily available in my area. My numbers vary from 75-125 cow/calf pairs and as few as 10 to as many as 200 calves according to market conditions. These numbers vary sometimes weekly as I trade several cows also. This has been a hard trading year because the cow numbers are way down in this area. Oh and I buy several hundred calves each year for other people. I started feeding hay March 10th this year. Fed until April 10th. Just cant seem to get past the 11 month grazing while still working full time. Think when I retire in a couple years I can rotate more and make it 12 months. And I will cull any cow that raises a calf weaning less than 550. Yep im hard on them but in low price years they just dont pay their way. [/QUOTE]
