If you have a place to keep it , with some grass. If she has good cover, butcher her. If she is too lean, leave her on grass or hay , give her some grain. She will put on the pounds, when she looks tasty, butcher her.. You might need two animals, as one doesn't do well alone, see how easy it is to become a farmer. old243

If nobody told me any different I would not notice. I'm no connoisseur of beef, but I believe it has a lot to do with cooking it and the cut of meat. RUN, I would like to hear your story though??????

I will attempt to tell my story. We had a partially blind Red Bull that liked to get out. I was trying to keep him in his pen so I bang a bucket with cracked corn, alfalfa meal, and a touch of molasses against a wooden post. He would hear me bang the bucket and charge full bore. I would quickly get back on the safe side of the fence and watch him eat his feed. I kinda got attached to him. I miss him a little bit. It's true that blind beef is the best tasting stuff I've eaten.
wanna be goat farmer.

Good feedback. Thank you. This is a SoDak beef that runs on a ranch with about 800 cows. I'm going to take her to the locker next Thursday. She gets wild when they attempt to drive her, so we'll shoot her, bleed her, put her in the back of the pickup and haul her to town. Hopefully it won't be a 90 degree day as it's about 50 miles from town.

This heifer is blind and can't be moved without her going nuts. She can't be driven into a lot. I live in town so me feeding her is outta the question. We'll just pretend she's a buffalo on the open prairie and just run with it.

We always timed our purchase to get beef that was grain finished. (I am no beef rancher, so we are taking the farmer's word for it). He told us to order in Feb/Mar as his cattle had been off grass and on to grain for several months at that point. We did find the flavor to I quite good always using this method.
Just happy to be here.

3 times the omega 3's in grassfed It is best for people to have a 1(omega 6) to 1(omega 3) or 2-1 omega 6 to omega 3 ratio in their diet but most people in this country have a 20-1 ratio or better.
