[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1840058, member: 25884"] Do you do any AI breeding? Contact the lowline assoc (AAA) or whatever they call themselves... I'm sure you could get semen through them. Then your better quieter cows can raise the half bred calves up... smaller size.... And if you get these high headed ones bred and calved out... take the calves away and bottle raise them, so they are more inclined to be gentle, and beef those cows... Yes there are genetics involved...and we get some squirrely calves out of our quieter cows just bred to our normal bulls... on occasion... but they live what they learn... and if they learn to be wilder, high headed, skittish... they often will always be more inclined... if they grow up with a quiet calm background, they are more apt to be quieter... even if they have flightier genes.. And some are just plain NOT WORTH IT.... The AAA ought to have a breeders directory that will give you places to go look at some others... [/QUOTE]
