[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1556266, member: 37967"] Yes, we will be selling embryos in time. There is more work to do on the genetics I have in mind before that happens however. Home run? That would be nice, but not banking on it. I just want to have a good time with this and see what develops. I saw an Angus heifer sell last year for in Kentucky for $97,500, I think she was 10 months old. That would be nice to pull that off, but I realize it’s a long shot. The embryos are more for the advancement of our herd. Glad to hear that you have a Joy Erica cow, I really like that cow family, we have a few. One is almost 2000 pounds and is like a statue. Really good cow. I’m not breeding just because of a prefix or what is currently hot. I want the years and years of work that an operation like SAV or Baldridge has produced, and buying a straw of semen is the best way to do it at the lowest cost. I’ve seen cheap bulls and I’ve seen really good ones from AI, I will take the AI all day long. No one will ever convince me that an old bull from the stockyards will produce great cattle. If that were the case everyone would get their bulls at the stockyards, and prices for them wouldn’t be rock bottom. [/QUOTE]
