[QUOTE="stocky, post: 90938, member: 1150"] kane, one more idea if you are far enough west or south that the grass isnt the best. i have had alot of real good cows that are longhorn or longhorn cross. you can buy them second period real cheap and get the ones that raise good calves. i bought a bunch last fall for 425-475 and cut their horns off and freshened them out and sold them for 850-900 each. buy them, cut the horns off about 2 inches from the head after frost, breed them to a good limosine or charlois bull----to give them bigger frame for feeder calves and those cows will eat all kinds of pasture and do real well in the heat and their calves will sell outstanding---a cheap way to get into the cattle business and sell some good calves. stay away from wild longhorns or the real light boned ones that dont give milk [/QUOTE]
