[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1773638, member: 40587"] I agree with all of you on these points. I had decided if they asked me again about the deal, I was going to tell them the only way I could see it work was if the dairy bought all the feed. So tonight they called to invite me to a CMS match this weekend. ( And I am going to take the colt with me, too. Be good for him to be around the racket). The subject came up, and I told them only way I would do it was if the dairy bought the feed. He said " They are. That's why I asked you about getting the 4 x 4 x 8 alfalfa bales you used to get in". They are going to buy the alfalfa hay, and also send him their bermuda hay. So, that swings the pendulum the other way a little. So [USER=8993]@kenny thomas[/USER] I will get them in contact with you if they go through with it. And, I told them to re-think the Brahma bull thing. I said [I][B]if [/B][/I]these were going to be 20 Jersey, or 20 Brown Swiss, or whatever...all the same kind....and [I][B]if[/B][/I] they were all born in a close calving window, then yeah, I see those 1/2 Brahma heifers in bunches of 10 or 20 sell for $1500 all the time. But the way these are going to come 1, sometimes 2 a month, sometimes skip a month, etc, and being 5 different breed of dairy cow, I'd go Brangus. A more marketable heifer as a single, plus their steers would be worth more being black and polled. So, [USER=41442]@bmm45bm[/USER] , I might be getting them in touch with you, if you will have a yearling bull for sale next summer [/QUOTE]
