I am a novice in the cattle business. I have three cows (1 steer and 2 Heifers) bought them in May at about 325 lbs each they are a cross bred short horn so I 'm told. I am just trying this for the first time a friends and freezer thing. They are contained in a 8 acre pasture, just dropped a round bale of hay from McCracken, I also have an old truck bed trailer with cap that I go to the Chattanooga Oklahoma CO-OP and purchase their bulk creep feed, I use a 5 gallon bucket to feed them. So they have free choice hay, I feed them a five gallon bucket of the feed daily and they also have free choice mineral and a few of the compressed mineral licks in the field and they have access to good water. I have a neighbor that helps with the vaccinations, tagging and other thing (helped band the bull calf). I am in the Cache Oklahoma area. Any input from those close would be greatly appreciated.
