[QUOTE="xbred, post: 404660, member: 5873"] ask a real cattleman how many acres or how many cows he has..he may answer, but he won't really appreciate the asking...when i was first getting started i visited a huge ranch that sold pure bred cattle. I asked, "How many acres do you have Mr.? " "more than some not as many as others" was his answer. maybe insult was not the right word. its's just not good ediquete to ask... on the other hand it can be an embarrassing question to ask someone who is trying hard to make a go of cattle, but falling short of his own expectations, and then to be asked how many acres or how many cows?? just not the right thing to do...the question will most often come from someone out of ranching than someone in ranching... just my opinion [/QUOTE]
