After mastering the poultry business, we decided it was time to move on to cattle. Our "herd" consists of one steer, T-bone. We bought him from our friend Chad, and he's now frolicking in Tom and Tracy's pasture with three llamas. We're hoping to relocate him to our freezer in about three months.
Tom and Tracy have a large pasture which wasn't being grazed by "agricultural" animals. They need an animal to meet their agricultural exemption for property taxes; T-bone needs grass. It's the perfect partnership. I spent about 4 hours retrieving T-bone and taking him over to the pasture. I doubt I will see him again until he is packaged in delicious, frozen packages.
