personaly, i would suggest a couple of calves. NOT for sale,but to put in your own freezer. heres the thing,in an auction a calf will bring you roughly $1.40 a pound. in your freezer its worth up to $9.00 a pound just like you pay at the grocery store. small farms ARE profitable "IF" they feed you first,then use the excess that you cant use for profit or cash items.ANYTHING you raise should be what you and your family eat,anything else you raise will simply cost you because your taking what other folks want trading it for cash and spending that for what you use.simply put, use YOUR effort, to feed YOUR family first and ANYTHING your raise is a direct profit to YOU! no need to hold calves over the winter,so you dont need hay. just make sure you take them to the butcher in time for your grass is in good enough shape to make the winter.a few cross fences will allow you to keep calves longer and growing in the shorter time while maximizing your grass.water is easily hauled and a plastic stock tank is cheap. as isay my opinion,traditional small farms have made it here simply because we used the farm to feed ourselves first.
