Got 3 heifers ready to breed. Not liking ai because Don't live with these cows and don't think I can sync them, plus 60+% conception...but I'm nervous about owning a bull. Internet makes them sound like they are man-crushing, equipment destroying monsters. And we let both our kids (13&15yrs) and friends kids go alone back in our fields and play/hand-feed the cows. All city-kids (with some common sense) btw. Not planning on retaining future heifer calves. So...1) try and rent a bull for a couple months a year?, or 2) there are such a thing as gentle, non-aggressive bulls. If I look hard I can minimize risk?...appreciate advice!
