[QUOTE="Wisteria Farms, post: 623812, member: 6734"] Toby, The lowline people will tell you you can raise more head per acre than the full-size breeds. AND for my daughter (who is very petite) I think she would have more confidence "working" the cattle if they are smaller...(she's not really intimidated by ours but I'm trying to have her manage her own herd.. not just the 2 that'll fit on the 5acres her dad's giving her). Also, this question to anyone.... What do you think of raising dairy steers? I also thought about that... but it would be more of a feedlot situation...all commercial. Mind you (because I know this is going to get brought up) what she does will be kept absolutely seperate from our herd of purebred Murrays due to issues of disease, etc. [/QUOTE]
