[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1766097, member: 9096"] Yeah, either the family has to be proven or the cow should be. I kept a heifer from a heifer, grandma was 8, the 3 generations prior all got to 12+ years old, She's done good so far.. I'm waiting for her to have a heifer, she's had 2 nice steers so far With the size of my herd I can't have special purpose bulls, I'd rather have to assist one here or there than lose production on everyone why wouldn't it? All depends on your feed costs, size of herd doesn't matter too much Unless you're paying a premium for premium heifers, you'll always take quite a gamble buying run-of-the-mill bred heifers, probably not much history on them.
