Have a quarter cow, man » Grass-fed cattle

» 04 March 2010 » In »

Here are some of Ivan's own cattle. They are raised on grass with a little bit of grain in the winter. To me, they seem happier and healthier than the grain-fed steers in the feed lot.

One of the major downsides of grain-fed cattle is that they have to be fed antibiotics to fend off infection from the sores caused by the food they eat. Ivan is nursing these two immuno-compromised steers back to health.

Here's Ivan showing me one of the blends of hay that he feeds his cattle in the winter.
