[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1146565, member: 18945"] Before you jump in too deep, learn all you can about grass and other forages. "15+ acres in 2 pastures" doesn't really mean very much in of itself. That might support 1/2 dozen animals--might support more or even much less. I understand it's going to be a hobby, but no need making it a hobby so expensive you have to get out of it if you move in over your head. Everyone that raises ruminants, regardless of herd size, is a grass farmer 1st and livestock producer second. Good water available on all parts? Any structures for shelter or hay storage? Good luck with this and welcome to CT. [/QUOTE]
