[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1440979, member: 24027"] Depends on how many heifers we have in a given year. Whether I like the heifer and her lineage. Depends on her pelvic measurements. And how badly I need to cull the older cows. Current pricing is a consideration: would I be better off keeping her, selling as a feeder/replacement or selling as bred? Oftentimes, I make my decision immediately: currently have a heifer I am going to retain because she's the only heifer out of a top/fave cow. I hate her! But I'm going to keep her & force the love - if she's still a witch after weaning/breeding I can always sell. [/QUOTE]
