Greg explains the benefits of leasing multiple farms that touch each other.

People that argue and talk to you rude don’t deserve any explanations

Nice to see our well managed farm on Greg's video. The land has never looked better, my hunting is great, and Greg is wonderful to work with.

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

Dave, you and Sue are great landowners to work with!

[@immoosiesmom]

I love your beautiful cows! That last cow you lingered on is so gorgeous, I blurted out loud how beautiful she is while I’m sitting alone drinking my morning coffee. If those folks want answers, they should think about attending one of your grazing schools. Thank you.

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

Thanks for your kind words, she is a beautiful cow.

[@welder78s7]

The things people say when they dont have a clue what the reason or why some one is doing something. You have some of the best looking cows calves out there. Not to mention all on grass. Keep up the good work you and the crew.

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

Thank you sir!

[@carlawatson7859]

My husband and I really appreciate all the details you give. It really is wisdom and helps. Those calves look AMAZING❣

[@Marjan-1310]

Just beautiful. Never tire of seeing the babies!

[@BosnWayne]

I sure do love your videos. It makes my day to watch and listen to the positivity you exude. Would you please do a sheep video? I miss them

[@janetjohnson998]

I wish you would do course or a video on what’s a good price for a lease farm, how to set it up basic outlines of things that should be in a contract that benefit both sides,etc.

[@marvinbaier3627]

Thanks for the video! I’m trying to move up my calving season for next year. My animals calved in middle July to middle of August. They were bred later because I AI my animals the last 2 breeding season. This year I put a bull in there with them. The bull that I kept her mother is the first to come in heat (33 days after calving and first to calf every year too). I’m hoping having a bull I will move up my calving season a few months. Instead of July and August, it will be May and June. Then, I’m hoping it will be April and May the following year until they will be all April.

FWIW, whitetail bucks only breed when in hard antler I.e. 4-5 months out of the year, AND they segregate themselves away from does MOST of the year.

[@hurdleguy8014]

Hello! I saw your video from a year ago about your sheep. I had a question as I am looking to potentially farm sheep myself. What is the best strategy for avoiding inbreeding? How long should one keep a ram in a group before removing them? Have you done breeding groups or just one big herd? Thanks for the help!

[@lindagates9150]

No need to mess with roads interrupting traffic and temporary tape for driveways was my first thoughts the calves can be just a gate away with mum until they are ready to join the herd 🤷🏼‍♀️🤜🔔🤛🍀🌟🍀🤜🔔🤛😘💓💞💕💞💓

[@devinsullivan7233]

Could you cull your cows that don’t breed when you want them too and just select for spring calving heifers? Or is it not necessarily dependent on genetics? Not that it would be practical since you have such a large herd… Just curious since it’s less practical to have to separate a bull with a small herd. Say you have 1 bull and 5-10 heifers.

[@wadepatton2433]

Well some of us dug around in all your old videos and found where you and Jan had discussed this once before. Those paying attention might have seen where Greg confirmed my comments with regard to his split calving seasons. That makes this the second time it has been explained. The Africa aspect I missed before--but then Ian's advice and comments have been good. (Ian didn't write the article.) Genetics too good to dump, no desire to leave 'em open for shifting them back. 2018 plus 15 years is 2033, and around then they might be fading from the herd and GJ won't have to explain 'em any more. With cows in the premium condition afforded by fresh grazing 3x per day, Fall calving works pretty good I'd say. Splits off some of the Spring workload too.

[@savageairsoft9259]

Good cattle!

[@Marilou-g5t]

Natural seed bank and context are 2 important considerations. Would you breed fall calving herd to calve a month or two earlier each year to bring back to spring calving herd? As well fleshed as your herd is, they would likely breed back quickly. Or give 6 months extra open time? Or keep on fall calving? If you were an AI herd, the fall calving herd would be great to used sex-sorted semen to get 90+% bull calves, so you minimized heifers born into a fall calving herd.

cattle = non-seasonal ployestrus cycle deer = seasonal polyestrus cycle

[@wadepatton2433]

African cattle example- Frost Free Zone.

[@leelindsay5618]

The story was great, and it shows you tried something to see if it worked. I'm sure with enough time and loss, the cows would cycle like the deer in your area. Its just not a financially sound strategy in your context. Just like how Dr. Allan Williams says you have to reduce inputs, even if you are trying to eventually cut them out. Change while staying profittable takes time. With more farms, you are keeping more animals...but you are managing for the grass you want with the grass you have.

[@eltonmau7412]

Greg I believe 1% to 10% of the people you are never going to be able to satisfy. Let their comments roll of you like water off a ducks back. Another wise man once said “ When arguing with an idiot always make sure who the idiot is.” Smile, it’s a beautiful day.

[@gagerawluk2949]

You’ll never see a hater doing better than you. Armchair experts. Cattle look in fantastic condition, they seem quite happy.
