Not a Grain Bin… Our Feedlot Upgrade

We’ve had a lot of questions about our feedlot expansion and why we didn’t go straight to a grain bin or commodity barn. The truth is, every operation looks different, especially when you’re first generation and building as you go.

In this video, we walk through a feedlot upgrade that made the most sense for us right now. From daily feeding logistics to time, cost, flexibility, and long-term plans, we break down why this setup fits our operation and how it helps us keep things moving efficiently.

This video captures:
• Our daily feeding routine
• Why storage was becoming a problem
• The Marketplace find that solved it
• First load, first mix, and real-world numbers
• How this fits into our long-term ranch plan

This may not be the “traditional” route, but it’s the right one for Bar 7 Ranch at this stage.

👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know how you’d handle feed storage on your operation.
