[QUOTE="brandonm_13, post: 692671, member: 7875"] If they are going for smaller frame size, the weight may not be a problem. I have small cows that calve successfully all the time, and since they are smaller, I have a higher cow to acre ratio. The thing that is weird to mee is the beefmaster in Illinois. Of course we are used to it, but it should be just as weird that we have livestock in southern Alabama with NO brahman influence. If they aren't registered, which I assume they're not considering the breed of the bull, they seem a little overpriced to me. I might consider them at $200 less. Of course, personally, I never buy bred heifers. I either buy them with their first calf at their side, or bred back with their second calf. That takes alot of the risk out for me. [/QUOTE]
