[QUOTE="Farmgirl, post: 825422, member: 832"] We bought 4 eggs from a very good mating. Had a vet that lived very closeby to put them in. That saved a lot on cost plus the convenience. We got 2 very nice heifers that should be great foundation cows for our little herd. We put the eggs in commercial cows that we already had. An advantage is the heifers were raised on our place, with our management from birth unlike if we had bought heifers or cows. Disposition is very important to us. I think there is a place for embryos for the little guy. Will we buy more embryos, maybe, but probably won't do it every year. Are we happy we bought the eggs, yes. Also, our vet retired so not as convenient as it was. Good luck, Farmgirl [/QUOTE]
