[QUOTE="Toad, post: 1252784, member: 20188"] I'm sorry if that came across as too critical. As I said I completely understand the idea of using cheap cows to make a buck, I'm doing it right now. But I think all of us on this forum would take top of the line cattle if thats what we could afford, thats all I'm saying. If someone is looking for really good cattle we shouldn't be recommending something that most likely isn't going to work. Over 50% of my herd is someone elses culls. I've done the math and in the current market and my limited financial position thats what I can make the most $$$$$ currently. The market is willing to pay good money for questionable light calves so I'm taking advantage of it. But I don't see that as a long term sustainable model, do you? At some point the market will correct itself and then you better have quality calves if you plan on making a living. Maybe I'm reading this all wrong, I certainly don't have the years of experience that some do here. [/QUOTE]
