[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1647486, member: 9096"] I think it's a bad idea to have any policy set in stone.. if you got some old cows that are still making really good calves, why not keep them.. but having a herd with an average age of 10+ is also probably not a good idea I've got 6 cows going to the sale barn tomorrow, they're 2, 3, 7, 10, 13, and 15.. the older ones I'm just sick of their attitudes, the two oldest will do everything the wrong way, left when they're supposed to go right, etc.. the 7 and 10 year olds are hard on my fences and I'm sick of that BS as well.. the two youngest don't look nice and both had vaginal prolapse issues coming up already.. no need for that either. I my two oldest are 16 and 12.. if my replacement heifers work out they might go next year [/QUOTE]
