[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1342130, member: 20599"] :welcome: I've only been at the cow thing a few years. You will find a lot of helpful people on here (and a few cranky misanthropes, but oh well). ;-) One of the best things I did was to read [u]Storey's Guide to Raising Beef Cattle[/u], and [u]The Cattle Health Handbook[/u], both by Heather Smith Thomas (a lifelong cattlewoman). Take it slow while you learn the ropes. Have good fences; a viable way to catch and treat your cows; and a good relationship with your large animal vet. Buy cows that will work well in your environment, and don't put up with bad temperaments. (As near-newbies, that is our #1 rule). [/QUOTE]
