[QUOTE="Brand, post: 1247945, member: 23314"] With the exception of the club or show cattle people. Have times changed so much the past five years where the small registered breeder over. I see several things that indicate this.. one internet auctions where a seller will deliver a bull sight unseen to a buyer on the tv or computer that has seen videos etc of the bull. Once, I went to get a really good bull when I got him home everyone asked where I got him. big mistake. Five people that could of been buyers from me went to that place and bought bulls from them sometimes they even discounted the bulls to them. Another example some others ask do I AI of course I do some. Then they go around and try to AI their cows not buying a bull either. I appreciate the calls and people coming to see the cattle and talk. It has just got out of hand. I have got in the position where people I have known for years tell me to hold a bull for them later to find out they went somewhere else to a large breeder to get a bull. Watch out for the good ol boys and preachers. I have seen small purebred dairy breeders and swine breeders go down a similar path but I thought it was industry driven. What are others thoughts [/QUOTE]
