[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1814890, member: 40587"] Every purchased cow can be disease and problem free, if you know what you are doing. It takes time and experience, and you learn as much about it by buying bad ones as you do good ones. Same with raising your own replacements: That takes time and experience as well. When people 1st start doing this, they gonna cull some good ones and keep some bad ones. There is a big difference in going to a local sale barn and buying a cow that a trader brought in that day, with stickers from the sale he bought her at 2 days ago still on her, and buying them from a reputable replacement producer. They will maintain a health protacol that is probably stricter than the average farmer/rancher that raises his own. Staying in business mandates that they only sell top-quality cattle. [/QUOTE]
