[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 147757, member: 13"] They use some of their own bulls AI, but they want to use proven bulls. Their aim is to sell bulls to commercial cattlemen. They sell all those "great herd bulls" and if they prove out, use them AI on their cattle, just as any Angus breeder can do. They're also deep into the embryo transfer business in order to produce more bulls from the top cows in their herds. They were the first operation I heard of that leased cattle from commercial operations to implant embroys into. They ran out of land to increase their cow herd, so they leased their neighbor's cattle to carry their embryos and buy the calves at weaning. I think they also furnish bulls to clean up the cows if the embryo doesn't take. [/QUOTE]
