[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 495359, member: 3162"] CB, Your post kind of goes from one extreme to the other does it not ? :lol: For me, and this climate, it all comes down to a matter of, "If it aint broke you don't need to fix it." A proven method employed by the old timers is sure thing. It is much easier for me to bet on a sure thing. Profit margins are shrinking. There seems to be opportunity out there right now for seed stock producers. There are not many eared cattle coming through the sale barns right now. If a good one does come through, they bring a premium. You'd take a little hit on the steers because of the ear, but they will weigh significantly more. You jget a huge bonus of the heifers with ear. The problem for me is, if I had those type of cows, I'd be holding on to them versus converting them to cash. [/QUOTE]
