Every time you put up a photo, I'm always trying to figure whats in the background. Is that Galway?

Ya, looking out across Galway Bay over to connemara. If you look towards the left you can make out the 12 Ben's and you can see the wind turbines in connemara aswell. On a fine day in summer you'd swear it was only a few miles away. If I turned around the other way on a really fine day you can see all the way down to Mount Brandon in Kerry too.

Had a few here from him. He throws great calves and they all seem to have that grey tinge to them from the limos.

I was surprised that there isn't many farm buildings for such acreage.

Rainfall is only 380mm in Montana. Seems to be as much a conservation farm, as a commercial one.

I often talk to a guy out there on Twitter, has red angus, was hoping to go there for a week or two this summer but seems covid has gotten rid of that!
Outwintered, only in for dosing or sending for slaughter or feeding. In theory, simple!

Don't forget that you'd also need to factor in the cost of the second MF 135 to work it

Mooooo

1100 cows so say 1700 livestock units roughly, over 17 acres per Lu. And a 1000 dollars and acre to buy.
