Wow, you guys did a heck of a nice job! I like the guardrail idea. I've been thinking about using it for my bud box. It's unbelievable what lumber is going for right now.. just crazy
Good little video on your plans for the future I would go to the town square and talk to someone in their 80s and 90s with bib overalls on that had cattle operations and compare what do universities have to say You already commented about the barn the eaves they should have been longer I would finish the job Also some parts of the country are better to raise cattle than others cost-wise I don't have the answer you got to kick it around till you do and are comfortable with the results see you next time
It is always good when work goes into setting up things so you have to work less to produce more. I have some power poles with guard rail by the roid to stop drunks from crashing into my fence.
Best thing I ever did was use sex semen to get all my heifers and use beef semen on the rest. Those cross calves are easier to market than straight jersey calves. I'd like to build a barn like that someday to maybe finish out more calves for direct market.
