Dont know your age, health, or stuff like that, but the grass isnt always greener on the other side. If you get out of the cattle, and decide to go back into them, will you be money ahead? Just helped the neighbor load up all his breeding sows on Sunday. He's get out of it, because he had no corn crop (drought)and cant afford to buy feed, he's 64 and just had back surgery. I would say he wont get clear $1800 for the 20 with todays prices. I cant blame him, but if next spring his boy or son in law decide to get into the business and utilze that barn they'll never get them sows back for $1800. If you are making a good living on the cows and the crops, why not, as you said, hire someone for the care of the cows, you'll always worry a bit when your gone, but that will get easier as you go. I hire the previous owner and my pa to care for our breeder barn for the week we go to the cabin, still worry like heck even though the "help" has been doing it for 20+ years, but that week off really is nice, and after a few cold Miller's and the wife in a bikini, I relax.
