One Fine Acre - 2023 4H Steer Project Update

[OneFineAcre]

My friend just sent me a property 65 acres already has barns, all pastures fenced, hay fields ready to go... with house. $260,000.

one really BIG problem... house is way to small.
Dh said we could just live in the barns... may as well with goats and puppies in our house probably wouldn't be much different.


That 200 acres... good investment for YOU though

It would be a good investment
Now I just need to hit the Powerball and I'm all on it


Where is the 65 acres at?
Get a camper and put the oldest kids in that
They'd probably love it

I already deleted it.... it was North to Northwest of Raleigh I think.
I don't know what county.

Forget the kids... I want my own camper!

Me too on the camper
On a totally different subject
The hay situation
Went to get hay Sat
Big sign out front "all hay booked"
I had a bit of a panic
So I pull in get two rounds of coastal and my feed, paid him and then asked about the sign
He told me that if you aren't on his hay list he will not sell you hay
Not taking new clients
Biggest issue is with horse quality fescue
Most feed fescue unless it is a bred mare because coastal more likely to cause colic at least that's what some folks say
Right now if you aren't on somebody's list you are in a bind
I was going to go back this Sat to get two more bales but he told me not to worry about it felt like he had 30-45 days of coastal on hand
I found a guy that still has 300 bales of sheltered peanut hay and I'm getting two bales tomorrow
I can only haul two I may get two more Wednesday

I am seeing that a lot this year with the hay.
I also just saw our forecast for NC is suppose to be below average temps into April.
Great...
That is something that does concern me about whether we move to the Mountains. Hay seems harder to come by.

I would definitely scout a hay source before I relocated
