A cattle farmer has contacted me and wants me to check on a herd of 90 head that will be grazing his 100 acre pasture for 75 days. He wants me to check them once a weekend and may be once during the week as he will do it most of the time. The owner of the cattle are paying him to let them graze it for 75 days. The cattle are weaned heifers, with all shots & wormed. Anyway, I live about 28 miles from the farm and he wants me to let him know what I would charge to do this. I've never done this and was wondering if I should charge by the mile or for my time or both. I'm not really looking to make a bunch of money but will gather good experience and make a few more contacts in the cattle business.
