[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1092535, member: 14585"] Howdy Rcole, Well it's good to have a plan. Your cowboy's advice seems sound to me. IF you get a couple heifer calves that you like exceptionally well you can add them to the herd, but I wouldn't count on getting any. It's tough to find a bull that performs for both terminal and replacements. IF in the future you want to raise your own replacement heifers, I would suggest A.I. breeding your best cows for specific replacement traits [1 service] then clean up with your bull. BUT A.I. can be a real hassle if you aren't set up for it. F1 females are the way to go and like I said, I think your cowboy is giving you sound advice. Plus for him to be successful it's in his best interest for you to succeed. Best of luck to ya Rcole. s-o-b [/QUOTE]
