[QUOTE="Bigtmiller, post: 636822, member: 9977"] Thanks for all the replys. I think I will pursue getting a few head to start with and run them with another herd. I know several grain farmers that have some beef cattle just because they can't farm the pastures. They all let me hunt on their land and in return I give them all kinds of meat products from work - hams, bacon, sausage, etc. So I have a good relationship with them. So they may not charge me to much. As far as land, I will keep my eye open. I am a big follower of Dave Ramsey - he talks about living debt free. By next year my only debt will be my house. So I will be in a great position to go get a great big loan and go into deep debt for the rest of the my life, ha, ha. My plan is to start buying things I need. Like a livestock trailer. I plan on purchasing one this year. I may not need it for awhile, but I figure if I buy things little by little, when I am ready, I will have everything I need, or close to it. My wife loves the idea of living on a farm, but I think she thinks I am slightly nuts for wanting to get back into cattle. Maybe we all are, but I'd rather be crazy and having fun than sane and not. Thanks, Tom :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
