[QUOTE="docgraybull, post: 61646, member: 885"] Frequently, seedstock breeders who are having a "registered" or "production" sale will throw in 100 or so commercial cows to increase (local) interest. Commercial meaning not registered. They may be of the same breed as his cattle, or not. Usually they are. They may be from ranchers who have purchased bulls from him and used them, and are now ready to offer their offspring, thereby marketing his seedstock's commercial production ability. Sometimes they just don't have enough registered animals to conduct a sale, but still want (or [i]need[/i]) to have a sale, so they throw in some commercial cattle as "fillers". If the seedstock producer is reputable, usually he will be somewhat selective about what type of commercial cattle he allows into the sale, so it is usually worthwhile to look them over. [/QUOTE]
