There are many tricks to managing a small cattle herd, especially if you don't have a lot of land to work with. In this video I walk through how we manage 35 head of Dexter cattle throughout a typical year. This includes: • 1. How much land is required per head to graze and provide hay • 2. Our breeding schedule • 3. How long it takes to grass finish beef going to the butcher • 4. How we separate our 2 breeding bulls and make sure they are placed with the right cows to prevent inbreeding • 5. The pros cons of keeping bulls vs. artificial insemination • 6. How we keep stable herd numbers via the selection of cull heifers • Note: • -We do not offer farm tours • -We do not ship our farm's products • Facebook: / just-a-few-acres-farm-187074114794963 • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justafewacr... • To order Pete's book; A Year and a Day on Just a Few Acres: https://www.amazon.com/Year-Day-Just-...
