[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 1629"] We have settled on purchasing the CattleMax purebred small edition. Besides everything you might think of for the cattle operation, it has the SPA program which appears to be the same as CHAPS program. Seems very complete, and they will be making it compatable with our National breed assn. (Simmental) this spring. Seems very willing to set up my needs. I installed the demo. Real user friendly, seems to have everything. Thanks for your interest. Jeanne > Jeanne, > I am also looking for a > cow/calf/herd mgmt software.
