[QUOTE="Sundown Land & Livest, post: 60099, member: 980"] BEz We have 35 acres and ran 13 head last year. I think that we could run about 18-20 without stretching the pasture too thin. But I dont know if I should base too many of my decisions on last year, as I think that it was above average. We sold the first group of calves in early December, and have now picked up 4 hereford calves, which I think would be a good number to expierement with for the next few months, until we pick up the balance of what we think we can run on the place. I just finished building a 40'x40' barn, 1/4 of which is used as a loafing type shed for the calves and has feed bunks which provides easy access for me. I have looked in the area for used bulk grain storage, however have had little luck finding one. So the gravity box that you mentioned does intrest me. My biggest concern, and it may be unwarranted, is stopping the flow of feed, once I "open the flood gates". [/QUOTE]
