[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1619855, member: 24565"] "non DNA tested, non AI bulls." Neither of those terms assure quality. I use home raised bulls, do some selected AI work and get better calves for my situation than the general AI run of the mill highly tested bull. How do I know? My calving seasons are 45 days, the cows and calves flourish on KY31 fescue, everything is gentle and healthy, has no sway backs, no foot or udder issues and I do not need to take an air hose and put it to my ears and blow the Blue Smoke out of my brain each time I see a sales catalog or read an article about great cattle somewhere else. Been there, done that. I learn fast as with the hot horseshoe deal. Let's get real. If the bulls you see by the droves are sorry the daughters are faulty and everybody is looking for a "Corrector Bull" - the majority are products of mainstream AI sires - you'll get the same at your farm. Driving up your driveway with the semen in the tank is not a magic bullet. Same old same old. [/QUOTE]
