    I’ve always loved the small beef cattle farms. Just something about them. Thanks for the video and have a good one!

      Hey Nate. Thanks for the comment. It is not a great video until I have heard from you
      I wonder where the Agri dome is. Have not heard from him in a while??
      I hope he is still watching.

    Timed that right. Prices are stronger now then when this guy bought them. We raise our crosses to 600 pounds and sell them. Been a good go this past year.

    At dairys, some newborn calves are sold the first 2-5 days. They started out pretty hungry, we fed 1 out, acted as if starving but he's doing great & gaining now. We feed 3# of mixed grain w Timothy & alfalfa (4flakes) gaining well. Happy with the cross & will buy another next time

    We do jeresey/limousine cross. Was feeding them to finish and selling as freezer beef, but ran out of room. Now just sell them at 3 days old.

      The whole beef system is skinny. Especially with high corn prices.
      I left my feedlot empty this year as hard to pencil with expensive corn. And there is a lot of work to a feedlot. Hard when you do all the work and barely break even or worse
