[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1484703, member: 28532"] I agree on keeping a bull out of a top performing cow. We are about 1/2 AI with bull cleanup and 1/2 straight bull service at this time, with the goal to AI everything one round then go to live cover to cleanup. Instead of spending big dollars on a cleanup, why not save the best few back, number depending on need of course. Spend those dollars on cows or heifers, facilities, etc. It will also give a good comparison on how good the performance is on the AI sire, assuming he's also not the sire of your cleanup. Even if he was cleanup's sire, it could still be a decent indicator of his performance, ability to pass on desired traits, etc. [/QUOTE]
