[QUOTE="cmf1, post: 664233, member: 6681"] 2 would keep each other company and keep them from wanting to wander through perimeters as much. Still will need solid fencing. 2 mouths, 2 bags of feed, 2 x the money. Depending on where you are located for much of this. What's available to you at sale barns is mostly culls and refuse. You'd be much better off to figure out what breeds or xbreeds that are acceptable to you and see who is raising them near you. I have a found visiting farms and buying stock to be a much more enjoyable experience than hours at a salebarn suffering the parade of junk between the acceptable lots. Buying from the farm you are only exposed to the health issues of that one farm. Buying from the salebarn your stock is exposed to the health issues of ?. Regardless of where you buy get to know your Vet. Costwise, some farms in your area may be selling the type of beef thet you are wanting to raise precut and packaged or ready for packaging. That way you know exactly what your costs are, without all the variables. You just won't get to enjoy the smells, yells, and swells of raising your own. [/QUOTE]
