[QUOTE="Alan, post: 1045271, member: 378"] I'm no cattle guy, more of a hobby guy. I run between 12 an 15 cows and a bull usually have a couple of steers for future freezer stock. I just wanted to make that clear, I AI every year, except this year ... Another story. But I have mostly kept a good AI calf and raised him to use as a clean up bull, yes sometimes I get a son-mother calf, those don't go back in the herd. When I start getting too much of that line of bull I throw in a new AI calf for future clean up. But they have to be bull quality, not just "a son of such and such". I'm watching three young bull calves this year for future clean up bulls. [/QUOTE]
