[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1554756, member: 498"] So he had a couple hundred head he was feeding a good ways from home. Ran out of hay there so he brought them home today. We separated them into 2 herds. One is his registered cows. The other is a herd of Waygo cows. The registered cows is a novel idea. He has somewhere near 900 commercial cows. He uses these registered cows, both Black Angus and Charolais, to raise his own bulls. He AI's them to top bulls and has as good a crop of bulls as a person buys from seed stock growers. He needs about 10 bulls a year. This cow herd has about 50-60 cows so he is keeping roughly the top third of the bull calves. I don't know about the heifers. I do know there are very few white cows in the commercial herd so I assume they get shipped. The same thing could work on a smaller scale. [/QUOTE]
