Ep. 66 - First Week with a Bison Ranch | New Texas Ranch | Blackacre Ranch

First week as an actual Texas bison ranch. We survived our first week with the new Bison herd. We have another small group coming soon and have to prepare the finishing touches on our large pasture to make room to accept them in a week. We check on our bison ladies while Jeff helps Steve work his Bison herd and our 8 buffalo in the squeeze chute. Bison fences should be high, especially in corrals. Bison like to jump. Here on Blackacre Ranch we are weekend ranchers living in the big city during the week and ranching on the partially off grid property on the weekend. We are a family with 6 kids. Our goals are to homestead the property, grow healthy food, and build good character along the way. We are new to homesteading and don't know much about it, but we are willing to share our struggles and journey as we learn how to homestead together. Think of this as homesteading for beginners where we are the beginners. We found the cost of an urban farm too expensive and went rural to find enough acreage to do what we wanted. We wanted larger animals such as bison and highland cattle. We are game for other animals with one requirement, they have to be sufficient enough to be handled only once a week. We found an old camp property that was run down and are remodeling or fixing it up to be a working and profitable ranch. Now we can play with guns, blow stuff up, build what we want, and do what interests us. We are located in East Texas. Come with us as we enjoy the ranch life, even if only one day a week.
