[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16173"] I am sorry you had the misfortune to purchase some sorry bulls from a producer that obviously had no standards in the quality of animals they allow to be put into the gene pool. There are many producers out there who raise quality Limousin and cut the nuts off the ones that are goofy, I am one of them, and I also have in the past sent heifers to the feed yards that were bad natured.
