[QUOTE="TxSimbrahShower, post: 673327, member: 621"] Like I said it was just a question asked during a conversation, I didn't really go into the details on the why or who. In a way wanted to know who it was, but then in another way didn't. However, supposedly wasn't anyone that we do business with, so that made us feel better. Could be several different reasons. Maybe both cows are partnership cattle and maybe cow B they own a bigger percentage in, maybe 1/2 interest and in cow A maybe only a 1/4 interest, or maybe cow A is a partnership cow and cow B they own 100%, may just be greedy. Maybe they owe more to the partners in cow B, then cow A, and since for some reason cow B didn't have a calf or lost her calf they want to replace it with cow A's calf. Who knows with some of these folks. My red flag goes up when a rancher explains in detail just how to cheat, reg. a 1/2 percentage or different breed totally, as long as it has enough of the breed characteristic, as a purebred, by saying it's out of a cow or bull that you don't ever plan on reg. anything else out of and if dna is requested, then oops, sold bull/cow or bull/cow died so can't get dna samples. or when you go to look at show heifer's and you ask the birth date on one and the answer is "what birth date do you want it to be." Well I want to know what day it hit the ground, not that it was born in Nov., but, a Jan. birth date is put on the reg. papers. [/QUOTE]
