NW Missouri | You're right, but it takes long enough to show up it can happen even when buying good looking cows. I bought some nice cows to add to the herd in 2016 and turned out one had Jonnes. As you said, took 6+ years to get rid of it completely. We haven't had any now for 2-3 years.
My brother in law gets along good with the last calf cow program, buying broken mouth breds, calving them out, turning bulls out with them, then selling everything that isn't bred. That sounds like a better plan to me than buying a bunch of thin opens, some of which will never breed.
