[QUOTE="Terri, post: 65211, member: 325"] We are thinking about it. My main concern is the amount of grass that will be available compared to what we have now. I have only been to Roswell once and can't remember how much grass is there. I don't want to feed a ton of hay. We used to live near El Paso and I don't see how the cows there lived. There was almost no grass. I know they eat misquite, but how much additional hay would I have to feed? Oh, and where I live in order to get organic beef I would have to go over the internet. There are no stores here that carry it. I have a friend with a ranch here that gives me his orphan/ill calves or really young calves he picks up at work (auction) and I get half of what he gets for them when he sells, or if there is more than one he will give me half of the animals. My main investment is time. He provides the meds (when necessary) and I supply the pasture and care. Very little out of pocket for me until time to butcher. [/QUOTE]
