[QUOTE="Eire, post: 76213, member: 1462"] Hello all You all have been fantastic people in your many responses to my postings, again thank you!! your a great bunch! I'm sorry Texan, yes I should have broken it all down into fine detail, that way you'll have a better understanding as to what my intentions are. Yes I am considering moving my young family to Avery TX, I wouldn't be getting into or aquiring any stock until I am there myself.[/quote] I know it's such a small acrage and this is why I was just trying to find out what would be the better way to utlise such a small acrage and this is why I came to this board because I'm not up to scratch as to the way things are done or would be done here regarding this situation here in the USA, with cow and calf or steer operation etc... A few people that I have bumped into have said!! to small for cattle better to go with meat goats, but to make any sort of profit with the meat goats one has to run a herd of 300-400 and even then it seems that the profit is very little. Again getting back to At this point I am also trying to figure out as to how many acres I would need to make any sort of a good enough return on my cattle, not looking for to be a million air or anything like it (even though that would be nice) what I would like to do is maybe have the operation pay for groceries, home utilities and a little extra to put by for my kids. not asking for much, just a better clean life for my children and earn enough to be able to live the country lifestyle. I just didn't want to move my family to the 57 acres, set up home and find out that we are al eating peanut butter and jelly 3 years down the road. want to be able to just get by and live like everyone else in a small town community. But in sayng that another option would be that I could also purchase 100 acres if it would mean that this is what I would have to do in order to reach my main goal. [b]I must stress to the group,[/b] that you are not just helping a guy who wants to get into cattle business but rather a family that is trying to make the right decisions for their young family!! Hereford and Hereford Cross also a rural hardened Black White Face [/QUOTE]
