[QUOTE="Alan, post: 621320, member: 378"] I'll not say too much about your livestock, other than in summary I agree with Doc, they are not very deep and look fined boned.... but maybe the pics in spring will change my mind. The purpose of my response is to just say that I have found it hard not to have a bias eye when it comes to my cattle. I have come to depend on a few freinds on these boards to help me see through the mental connection I have with my herd.... meaning, I may have a cow that I think is put together well and produces a decent (do able or above avg.) calf, but I can count on some trusted freinds to "open my eyes" and say something like, she's weak in the front end, or udder, she's pinched at the... I'm hoping to be a local seedstock producer, but I have to look beyound that first heifer born on the place, or "Annies" calf. I'm just guessing but looking at your pics and your response to Doc's post, it sounds like you maybe letting your bias eye get in the way of producing top notch seed stock. I have found that I can't have a bias eye and I have to cull hard.... and I'm still a long way from getting there. Just another unwanted opinion, Alan [/QUOTE]
