Interested in the business

[Lingonberry]

Hello,

Some friends and I are playing with the idea of starting a cervid/exotic farming business sometime in the future, but none of us have any real experience in raising livestock. I've been doing some research on the internet so I've got at least some idea as to what the deer breeding business involves, but I'd like to speak to someone in person who has experience. I was wondering if there were any business owners near the Dallas area that would be willing to talk with us about the process and work involved. The four of us would really appreciate any help we can get.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Regards,

-Adam-
