I love looking at young heifers, especially if they are mine.

[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1741845, member: 16453"] Thanks for your comments. When I started breeding Angus when I retired about 15 years ago I used to admire the photos of groups of heifers from good breeders with them bunched together looking at the photographer some gamer than others but of a uniform quality and feel that I am getting that look with this bunch. There are 13 here, two have been sold to my neighbour to breed to Simmental bull and I sold another 8 to some people that have bought a couple of bulls from me previously. I am keeping the remaining 11, was supposed to be 10 but you know how it is, always hard getting them down to what you want. After this year I am going to transition to doing heifers PTIC selling around this time of the year all my surplus and just keeping about 3 or 4 bulls primarily for my own use as yearlings and then sell them after I've finished. This will allow me to keep a few more cows as well and eliminate the hassle of marketing bulls. I will only have 40 cows but having them at 3 venues will necessitate the 3 bulls to clean up after AI.
