Grass fed cows

My neighbor across the road knocks one in the head every year. Usually they are about 1 year old. I just had a steak he cooked after he went up in the woods in his f100 4x4 factory 390 4 speed and dragged a manzanita tree out with a cable and setup a a proper bar-b-q. I think it was the best tasting steak I ever had. The meat from his cows is excellent. Oh yea, he talks to them too, mostly tells them to stop bitching and shut up, I think that helps :)

He does a combo feeding process. Has 3 -4 cows or what ever they are heffers. Has 5 acres. Lets them just eat it till grass is mostly gone each year, during that time he gives them a little grain mixture occasionally. Then when the grass is gone, he uses alfhalpha hay and grass hay with more grain. The cow he will butcher, he gives more grain for the month before butchering.

I reckon he prefers keeping 2 cows and one calf for butchering each year as they dont go thru the the grass on the land and hay as fast.
