A older friend of mine has decided that he's tired of fooling with cattle, and approached me about buying out his cattle, and renting his farm. He currently has a total of 110 head. I know there is no way I can run a 110 cows, work full time for the RR, and still do my small row crop thing, but Im thinking 30 head would be do-able/profitable? For what it would cost to get into the hay equipment business, I think I would be better off to buy hay for the first couple of year's or until I KNOW that I like the cattle business? I should also mention that I have ZERO cattle experience! I can tell a cow from a bull, but that's about it. I have no problem driving out to feed them everyday in the winter, but can you let them go a couple of days at a time in the summer? I picked the number thirty, because I don't see the point in driving out every day just to feed five, but is thirty to many for a rookie? I would really appreciate your guys thought's on this(and I'm fine with a "your clinically retarded" if that's the way you see it) I'm just eager to get into the cattle business, and this seems like a prime opportunity.
