[QUOTE="Oregon Rob, post: 1338112, member: 25385"] This may be a little lengthy but stick with me. We have lived on 38 acres for the last 25 or so years and up to now I really haven’t done anything with it, been busy doing other things. I’m now looking to recover the land from the brush and scotch broom and want to raise a few cattle for myself and friends. I spend a few hours a day clearing for fence lines and hope to be getting fences in over the next few weeks. Will have plenty of pasture for a few head and plan on supplementing when and if needed with grass hay. I have been told that I can pick up Jersey bull calf’s for nothing from dairies. Years ago my FIL raised a Holstein steer and butchered it but my wife and I both were not happy with the flavor…. Something was just a little off. As I said I want to share the cost by offering part of the beef with friends but I don’t want to do that if it’s not going to taste like what they are used to…. Looking for some advice as to if this is a good way to go or not? [/QUOTE]
