This sounds like excellent advice. I don't even have a small tractor yet. Before steers, I'm going to have to string new fence. Next spring, if I'm lucky and have worked real hard, I'll be getting a bottle calve or two.

Did find a cinder block shed with a good roof that wasn't even listed. Has a loading ramp for a pickup. I'm real tempted to just outsource it.

Have a hernia and don't know if I can do it.

Do have a root cellar that will be perfect for hanging.

It's not a bad job, but with a hernia you might find it distinctly unenjoyable. There's quite a bit of bending and kneeling as you skin, obviously.
