[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13902"] I'm a fifteen yr-old boy who wants to get more involved in the cattle business.I live in a very rural community in SW Ark. And I am not totally in the dark with cows at all. I have helped folks work their cows and my father was a part time cattleman;tho I haven't saw him in a couple years and he is not of any help to me. I will have a budget of about $5,000 and wanted to buy some young cows or heifers and breed them around about june. My friend is very generous in offering to let me use his Charlois bull for free.
