Farm and Ranch life
- Thread starter Baker
- Start date
LOL, Watched a video the other night called " The social Dilemma ". Decided I was going to significantly narrow down my use of social media. I have a thread on another site called " Texas Bowhunter" where I describe in detail all I do both farm and ranch. Have over 500,000 hits on it.I let that expand to posting on several sites. Why? Probably hubris. So I've committed to use social media to learn and restrict idle chatter.
As I post idle chatter
I despise social media. I think it brings out the worst in people, and I have no desire to broadcast my life to people I don’t know.
However, I don’t consider a site like this to be social media. I may be wrong, but here and other forums are about teaching, sharing, and learning — not bragging.
Always love your posts, Rusty, and glad to see you back even in a limited capacity. Happy new year.

Great video Baker! You have any idea how much gain you may be getting per day on your cattle? And forgive me if I've asked you before, but do you have end markets planned out for the cattle and goats? I wish I lived closer, I'd be the first in line to buy beef from ya.
Thanks, appreciate your comments. We haven't tried measuring weight gain yet as we have grazed the cows both in the fields as well as in the woods. We got the cows in Feb. and everything for them since arrival has been transitory. And I'm brand new to the cattle business but I have a bright young turk in charge who watches everything very closely.
We worked on a website today. One aspect of the end game is to have a full blown business based on regenerative practices. Multi enterprise stacking, both animals and market gardens. Web site sales. So you will have your chance...

I'm going to throw out the first bet; the steers average 1.8lbs per day without cubes. Sell this fall at 775lds ave.

What kind of temps do you normally get to hunt in? We get grumpy up here if there are any bugs at all, and as of Sunday, I was still swatting mosquitoes in central MN. I've got my fingers crossed they've finally been zapped in northern MN by this weekend.

Yep, I would like some updates on what you're doing on your place with livestock and wild critters.
