So we just going to skip by those minis selling for 25-4100k. My mini calves will never see a butcher lol. I wonder if they cross them with dexter or some serious line breeding. I didn’t know white park and Galloway came as minis as well. I’m not really too concerned with buying hay and feeding...

I’m thinking of doing a little bit of both, dry females and bucks will graze with the cattle. Once bred lactating does, wethers and meat does would be in the different rotational pen. I think my hard answer on it would come when I see how the pasture fair with them, then I may just give the buck...

I wanted to graze goats with other livestock without using too much hay. I’m worried the other livestock(cattle, llama) would eat too much of the hay for the goats. Should I just keep around 5-8 goats on their own 1-3 acre rotational with supplemental grain and hay?

Sound like the girls I used to have they was Nigi as well when I started working a lot of hours the wife was giving them a lot of grain spoiled them rotten and I seen a lot of grasses they used to eat left to grow wild. Took a while to get them to come around have to be persistent and try to...

One of the things I love about livestock is if you change your mind on what cattle you want and can’t find a buyer you could always butcher lol. With 8-9 acres of good pasture and with the numbers your referring to that’s around 10 or so max of cattle. “The internet says” minis tend to eat...

After talking with my wife, we are going to try it both ways. Regardless we want the minis as pets. For their first couple years untill they can breed we will just get a couple steer crosses and raise them during the summer. In my area there’s a woman selling mini Hereford calves for 1500-3000k

Now look what you done....I seen a white park before but yours look great. With the wagyu genes to boot nice grab. Defiantly let us know how it go, I wanted mine to only feed on pasture during the summer like most but since I’m home buying with these things in mind I need to talk to cattle...

Hello grant new to the site came over from byc, I was interested in minis for the same reasons as you. Places I’m looking to buy are between 8-12 acre lots. Given the extra time it takes the minis to get to size what was you thinking for the in between time. I’ve been juggling with the idea of...
