NEMO | And you half way made my case didn't you? TBoss and any other breeder that sells bulls isn't going to sell you a prospect calf now is he? You want a prospect, hmm, that's a bull prospect that might be a 8-$10000 bull on sale day and you want him now? Ain't happening, sorry. Your other point doesn't really weigh up either, I've got lots of what I would think are good older productive cows, doesn't mean the calf is good, maybe I bred her to the wrong bull and the mating didn't work or the calf just doesn't have any grow power for some reason. As to the DNA, I want to use it, but on smaller breeds it moves around an awful lot because the data pools they use don't have enough animals or breeders report what they want to promote a certain animal..tell me it ain't so. Angus is better, but I've seen several times that between the time you pick a sire to use and the time the progeny is ready to sell the numbers move enough that you wished you hadn't made the mating. For all you guys that want to develop your own bull, just buy a few whatever breed cows you want and raise your own, and we all will be happy and call it good. Here's betting you learn a few lessons in the process | |
