[QUOTE="townfarmer, post: 1427384, member: 9305"] Question rather than a comment on this topic: Does keeping a bull til 11 or 12 have a big effect on the salvage slaughter price compared to a 6 or 7 year old? I recently saw a sound 12 year old bull but he was pretty light due to his teeth being worn down to pretty much nothing. Hanging onto a bull is not an option for us due to small number of cows but mainly due to the fact we don't live on the property and we aren't there to take responsibility for a mature bull's bad behaviour. We only use yearling bulls that we sell once cows are bred. Andrew [/QUOTE]
