[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1842645, member: 40587"] So, I got ole Zeke a Squire Strat and a Behringer 40-watt solid state amp, and a pair of head phones, so he won't drive Mattie crazy. Scott went with us, to make sure I didn't buy this stuff. He insisted and I agreed, to let Zeke spend [I]his [/I]money he got from selling the steer. We are hoping he realizes the value of selling these calves instead of making them all pets, and I think he is seeing the light. And he still has some money left over. Out of the 6 calves we got so far, just gonna keep the 3 Br x dairy cross heifers. Gonna sell the Angus steer, the Milking Shorthorn x Ayshire heifer , and the Fleckveih x Braunveih heifer. Going forward, Zeke won't ever see 4 of the 1/2 Brahma heifers we will get each year til they come home at weaning. The only one he will see as a baby will be Gail's calf, and any we have to graft on her. We will do this 4 times, and once he gets about twenty 1/2 Brahma heifers, gonna sell those nurse cows, except maybe not Gail. We will breed them to whatever black bulls we are using on the Corr herd each year. And these will all be terminal crosses. Of course it will be 2 years before he gets the first calves. Hopefully, those 1/2 dairy 1./2 Brahmas will do alright with just their calf each year, if we don't feed them.
