[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1834518, member: 498"] I have a new neighbor. He bought 150 acres just east of me last summer. There is about 30 acres that is irrigated which he never cut the hay. Sort of stock piled. He doesn't live on the place. There is no house. He lives 100 miles away in Boise. He told me last week that he has 25 bred Galloway heifers that are supposed to arrive tomorrow. I asked if he had any feed. He pointed to the stock pile. Then he explained to me that these Galloway heifers will do well grazing on the hills. He has about 120 acres of sage brush hill. We figure about 5 acres per cow per month. When talking about the hills he was pointing toward my place. His cows aren't going there. How long does 30 acres of stock piled last for 25 heifers? What if we get a foot or two of snow? The 10 day forecast has snow on 8 of the 10 days. I didn't ask him but how do you calf out 25 heifers when you live and work 100 miles away? I see a train wreck coming. [/QUOTE]
