Subject: Re: buying broken mouth cows.


That is part of what I'm asking here. Whether or not the potential reward is worth the risk. I realize small herds are easy to lose money on. Losing just 1 animal can remove most of the potential profit.

From what I am reading , I probably would not recoup the hay profits back out of the cows. If I can average $200 a ton and pull 4-5 tons an acre this summer I am looking at around $9000 in hay. Most of that being profit. If I put that into cows, I doubt I get much benefit for the work/risk.

Thanks for the comments.
