I know just what you mean. I'm in the same boat. Sold the dairy cattle four years ago and the party lasted a week.I increased the size of the beef herd to around 80 and went to finishing the calves out. Had to hire somebody to do chores in June while the whole family went to Kentucky to a wedding. Went back down in July and left the critters with the boys to take care of. By then the pastures were so far gone,I had a miserable time,worrying about them getting out. My cousin got rid of the last of his a year ago,I kind of felt sad about that. Told him if I didn't have those cows to take care of I'd feel like I was just waiting to die. As frustrating as they are though sometimes,and grain prices what they are,I have to wonder why I'm going out in the cold everyday to take care of 'em.Not to mention the hassle in calving season. Not an answer for you,but I just figure when the time comes to get rid of 'em,it'll be like the dairy cows,I'll just know it's time.
