[QUOTE="luke03cr, post: 1000096, member: 18406"] If u want a good herd sire it is very important that u get a vet to do a breed soundness exam, usully $30 at sale barn. U have to know how well the bull is able to breed. He may look like a the best show bull ever, but if he does not pass a BSE reproductive test then u will get poor results in your herd. The most important thing you can do for your herd is reproduction. After all if u have no calf to sale then it doesnt matter if that bull was supposed to throw big nice calves at weaning, bc u aint got anything to sale. U have to make sure he is fertile. It may suprize most people, but 10% of bulls out there are infertile in sum way. So why risk all that money on a bull that mite not produce any money for you. [/QUOTE]
