[QUOTE="wstevenl, post: 530410, member: 8201"] I don't think most people are considering that he wants to direct market this beef... he's not interested in selling to feed lots. I'm wanting to do the same thing, all grassfed, all direct marketing. Because lowline were so expensive I'm starting with Dexters. They have great beef and milk and have been pasture raise and finished for centuries (not bred for efficiency on corn). I hope to get a small herd of registered Dexters going and then cross some with the beefier Lowlines. One thing hat is documented in a Canadian test is that dexters (and it seems any smaller framed beeves) have more inches of rib eye / 100wt. Most Dexters aren't real beefy, but they don't need corn to get finished either. Also, don't tell me how they'll never be commercial beef animals... I know that. BTW, my first 6 Dexters are really easy to handle. [/QUOTE]
