[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 394136, member: 539"] Why would I want to cull her if she is still producing and raising a good calf? I certainly understand not keeping any heifer calves out of her, but I've seen cows with worse tits raise a good calf and not need any help to get the calf going, either. At 20 years old, Granny has already paid back her purchase price - if any - and then some. She sure looks like she can raise at least one more calf, so why would I want to settle for cull prices when I could get a better than cull price for her calf? When the day comes that she can't raise a calf, whatever she brings is simply icing on the cake. What am I misunderstanding? [/QUOTE]
