[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 41662, member: 195"] The thing that chaped my butt is one day I get a letter you have to raise your cattle this way to get your epds. I shopped all through the South for some great bloodlines and epds payed thousands for cows for the foundation herd . I tried TPR with my operation I was constantly pening cattle to meet their reporting schedule. The only way I could see to get all the data in and be cost effective was lie. I couldn't go there so I was forced to become a pedigree breeder. It really chaps me that I pay the same dues as the TPR breeders but I can not have epds on calves anymore. I still own cows that have epds but their calves don't qualify. Sorry for getting on my soapbox about the AHA. They wont even discuss some changes to help the smaller operations. [/QUOTE]
