Hopefully I wanted to see a lot of his bulls. Problem is they are all multi owned so who knows.

Heres a few thoughts. Redeem 30 straw/ 100 a cert so hes out for you if Wonder is too expensive. I have calves dropping now from him and they look good. No pigment and not small as far as birthweight. 94 and 90lb heifers. If it was me I would try Limelight, Kennedy, or Literal. Also...

Firesweep I get the whole thing about implanting exactly 7 days after heat. My vet says give or take a 1/2 day doesnt matter but I feel conception is always better at 7 days. Sometimes if I have different stages of embryos I try to match that with the time difference in heats. You cant cheap...

I always wondered if giving factrel like you were doing TAI 2 days after lute would help ET. My vet said no but with your success I just might try it. Now do you always implant 7 days later. I sometimes have the vet come out two days in a row if cows cycle different days but its quite a pain.

Were they all frozen or some fresh?

Great results. Cant ask for better than that.

I dont really know where this got off on the I wanna spend 10K on a cow without any concern of genetics. Doc I usually get what you are saying but this post is outta left field. Where did I say I want a 10k cow that looks terrible with terrible parents and epds? Who is focused on money? I...

I actually never finished school. Had some family issues and never went back. I make more than my engineer friends though so I'm not that concerned. George you know I will need a shirt too. Maybe we can get the second half off. I would rather buy embryos. I just was curious what has worked...

Nothing like a lurker on the boards Chevy that chimes in when he thinks he knows something. First I dont ever expect to sell you or any of your friends cattle so your interest means nothing. Lets see does a guy who went to school for engineering have any brains? I would think so. Do I make...

I realize all the things you guys are saying about buying the expensive cow. I realize the risk with either situation. Two breeders that are somewhat local have both said they messed around with cheaper end cows trying to get ahead. They both recommended that I buy the most expensive cow I can...

Fire sweep I am doing this to get my herd to the place I want it to be in a quicker time frame. I want to have good cattle that work well, are marketable, and hopefully make a profit at some point. I still buy embryos from top donors but didnt know if it was better to invest in a proven cow...

Chevy I did buy a heifer and some embryos from SL. I hate to break it to you but I own more than one cow. I dont even know how to respond to a comment like that. I'm curious why you made your tenth post on this thread in two years. Thanks again Walnut. I know there is no set answer.

I have actually bought two like that and wasnt impressed with the recips at all. I have recips so thats not really an issue. Sexed embryos are far and few between in the hereford breed with very few bulls with sexed semen. I cant see spending 5k for a recip with a 750 dollar egg that I can...

Ok so I run a small registered herd. I do have a budget and have been pondering this question. Is it better to say buy 6K in embryos and a half decent 5K cow OR say just buy a few embryos and buy a proven 5 yr old cow for 10k that could be a donor cow. My thoughts with the embryos would be...

If you are looking for horned 3027 or his son Sensation are very good. Polled I would say Check out Sandhill Farms or NJW sires.

Put your location that way people can point you in the right direction. Cant go wrong with danny's cattle. JMS victor domino I believe is his ranch. Lots of guys on here with either horned or polled herefords.

George SS has Hereford bulls who woulda known. I went to their AI class and out of the regional guy and two salesman not one even had a beef book in the truck. The sad fact is he is probably right.

But he's a trait leader :roll:

That was my first question I asked them were they feeding silage. The answer was no just mixed hay and creep for calves. Just happen to be terrible calving ease bulls apparently.

They are hereford hogs arent they? We raised large black hogs but had trouble getting them bred on pasture with power lines and the static in the ground. Meat we excellent.
