[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1093706, member: 9267"] That's just word play. The post specified bulls being sent for slaughter. I was speaking to another farmer recently and he looked shocked when I said I'd 'culled' an in-calf heifer for sucking on another heifer. "Crikey, that's harsh when a nose ring would have fixed it!" Except I didn't cull one of my top heifers to slaughter as he'd thought - I culled her from the herd by adding her to a group of sound young cows I was selling and explaining to the buyer exactly why she was in the group. Mostly the word is used for cattle going to slaughter but the broader definition is also correct. [/QUOTE]
