[QUOTE="robert, post: 902863, member: 9171"] If you plan to be in the cow business a long time then the primary goal should be not to screw up the cow herd by keeping terminal x females for breeding purposes, let your environment not the feed bunk determine the optimum size and type of female, pay attention to the sires that created those females and use that knowledge to select future cow makers. Already there is demand for breeding females, at a premium over steers rather than a discount, the steer side will take care of itself so focus on making functional, sound, docile, longlived maternal females that will increase demand for your surplus heifers.
