Our herd of beef cows consist mostly of Black Angus but I do
have some Belted Galloways and a Charolais cow named "Fairy Fae" that has been with us many years, she will
be 10 this year. Our herd is 24 strong and growing...
The cows enjoy grazing most of
the year and hay is available at all times during the winter months. We do feed grain on occasion, but mainly
as a treat to make sure they are easy to handle. I also use the grain feeding time as a way to check on all of them. The
first signs of a sick cow is one that won't eat.
We do not, however, inject our cows
with estrogen, we do not feed any grain or minerals made with animal products or by-products.
