I raise beef cattle! We have had beef cattle my whole life and once we build fence, my hubby and I will have our cattle with us again - we can't wait! Ours are all hereford and hereford cross. :)

A friend of mine raises highlanders! They're a neat breed. He calls them his "Hippie Cows!"

Thanks. :) I never technically left farming. My cows have just been with my dad's until we had our own place. :) We have both helped on our family's farms our whole lives and still do. Now we'll have our own to take care of, too, which is what we have both wanted all along. We've only been married since June, so we're working ard to make our dream a reality. :)
