[QUOTE="New-bee, post: 342889, member: 5775"] Oh dear :( Frankie raises such discouraging red flags that I might be disuaded if I hadn't done my homework. Below is an actual example of what one ranched did to improve his herd by using a single high $B bull and perhaps hoping to get that wonder cow ($B Comparison Dam To Offspring) Dam Off Spring Enhancement 18.44 42.43 25.79 36.36 27.74 51.06 Some 30.51 50.29 Some 31.69 47.83 32.98 49.25 33.79 48.34 33.79 47.23 34.11 49.65 34.20 42.18 34.32 53.15 Some 34.36 52.43 Some 34.42 52.39 Some 36.41 47.61 36.47 49.70 36.47 49.70 37.47 53.25 Some 37.54 54.26 Some 37.90 51.27 37.94 51.05 38.70 47.72 39.11 48.23 40.16 56.15 42.40 56.70 47.94 59.63 47.99 52.87 51.55 54.33 51.66 62.20 Yes!, higher than either parent 54.70 58.27 I think that he did well, and sold all that he wanted to sell because he just drew 1000+ more straws for future use and semen sales. I don't think that I will be disuaded by Frankie's red flags. I will proceed to try to get the $100,000 cow and then worry about how to market her. As to the other factors such as eye appeal, that goes anyway, but was not the issue - which was, Why would anyone buy a $100,000 cow? The answer is because they can afford to and wanted to rapidly improve the beef quality of their herd while making more in sales, more in semen sales and more from embryo sales. In the end its all about sales, and quality sells. :P New-bee [/QUOTE]
