[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 588147, member: 7795"] Poorboyed 'em just like dad did for a long time. Was building the herd by saving heifers till it the got cheaper to buy than raise. Started buying some brafords, angus, brangus and herefords. Still had the poorboy syndrome, was buying reasonable priced animals instead of uniform animals. Since then have found out that reasonable priced is not always a good buy. Went thru a lot of culling and also have narrowed the focus to brangus. Still like what an angus bull can do on a braford cow but have had to cull most of them for their temperament. Not as young as I once was and not worth getting hurt over. My herefords just haven't produced as well as the brangus and angus and run several hundred more per head around here so we have gone towards the brangus. Was running angus bulls on the brangus, angus, and brafords and brangus bull on the herefords till I had some bad luck and lost two angus bulls. Now I have a hereford bull on the brangus and the brangus bull on the herefords, angus and brafords. Come spring I'm going to have to either cull some more cows or buy another bull. Haven't made that decision yet. [/QUOTE]
