After years of hemming and hawing, I want to give this a try. I've been reading everything I can and have decided that a stocker operation that turns cattle as quickly as possible is the best option for me.

I'm wondering if there are folks in N CO/S WY who are running this type of operation that I can talk to? How much land do I need to run 150-200 head? Is there pasture available to rent in this area (draw a triangle starting in Fort Collins with HWY 287 to I 80 in WY, east to I 25, and south to FC, that's were I would want my land). I do want to purchase some land, whats the minimum I can get away with?

Finally, any links to websites or book recommendations would be great.

Thanks,

Jeff
