Forgive me.

I always thought a ranch produced livestock, and farm grew table fare. [/quote]

5.2 acres might be enough ground to make a living growing cannabis or wine grapes, but wouldn't be of enough ground to grow anything else that I can think of. Surely not enough ground to raise corn, soybeans, or beef cattle.

Richard Dude,

How could we ALL have forgotten the COW CONDOS? Thanks for straightening us out.

I heard those things are kinda like those businessman's hotels they have in Japan, where they just slide ya' right into a little coffin sized room. Bet we could squeeze a lotta cows on a 5 (5.2?) acre RANCH with that sorta system.

Thanks for the reminder, we may be able to steer clear of the turnip issues (breaking down fences, prolapsed turnip greens, hoof and root disease) now and just stick with beeves.

PS do you all think smaller breeds like Dexters, Mini-Herefords, or even a Mini-Scottish Highlands for the colder climes would work better than standard size cows?
