[QUOTE="NonTypicalCPA, post: 1428538, member: 25371"] I have a wife who is a two time cancer survivor at the ripe old age of 45. She has developed, understandable so, the desire for an extremely healthy eating lifestyle (much to my pain and agony). We (I) have a very small herd of 4 Beltie cows/heifers and 1 Beltie bull. I've gone back and forth on whether I should keep this bull or just AI with the help of my neighbor who has cattle and is a large animal vet. My wife is concerned over the hormone injections given in the AI cycle. She hears hormones and associates it with the negativity surrounding hormones and beef cattle, which I'm assuming is more geared toward growth hormones. So can you AI your cattle and still be a "hormone free" operation? I'm looking for some good information to base my arguments on if I choose to go the AI route. I just can't call her crazy - not without some repercussions anyways. [/QUOTE]
