[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1613143, member: 9267"] I'd always say it's worth it but very little information to go on there. Hire fees for a bank can get pretty steep, if you can get cull value of nearly what you paid for a decent bull and the resulting calves meet your goals, that can work out more effective. Hire of a bull for a short breeding season last time I checked was about $800. Doesn't stack up against buying and reselling a bull, or AI. Buying an AI bank secondhand and having it stored by a semen company when not in use has worked out far cheaper for me than hiring one for six - ten weeks annually. [/QUOTE]
